Berry Farmhouse

Berry Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse of longhouse form, dating from around the 16th century, with an early 17th-century ceiling and 19th and 20th-century alterations. The walls are made of cob and rubble stone, topped with corrugated iron roofs. The house has been converted to 1½ storeys, while the byre on the left side remains a single storey.

The farmhouse features approximately four windows, with early 20th-century brick dressings and segmental brick arch heads on the ground floor windows. The windows are two-light wooden casements with glazing bars, also from the 20th century. There are two 20th-century dormers, each with two-light wooden casements with glazing bars. The front door, located on the left, is a wooden door with nine glass panes and a bowed design, dating from the 20th century.

The byre, which is a continuous build with the farmhouse, has a plank stable door with wooden framing and lintel on the right side, a central loft door made of planks, and a loop to the left of center. There is an additional door at the left end of the byre. A 19th-century room has been built into the former byre on the left side.

Inside, the roof features three jointed-cruck trusses with two soffit pegs and a lower slip-tenon. It has a cambered collar with one peg mortice and tenon, and likely three purlins per principal. The ridge piece is cut off where interrupted by the stack, while the upper purlins continue across the sides of the stack. The central stack is straight-jointed to the rear west wall, and there is a bread oven on the west side, with the east jamb rebuilt in brick. The inserted ceiling has 3-inch chamfers with step-and-hollow stops. Notably, the north gable end wall is not at right angles.
