Description

BRYHER

SV81SE The Forge 1358-0/3/2

II

House, now outbuilding. C18. Roughly coursed granite rubble with gabled pantile roof and granite end stacks. Originally of 2-unit plan. One storey; 2-window range.Granite lintels over central doorway and flanking windows; rear has granite lintel over window to right of centre. Interior: open fireplace with timber lintel. The house seems to have been divided into 2 rooms, and the off-centre position of the rear window indicates that it did not have the central-staircase plan which was the dominant type in the C19. A rare surviving example of a single-storey dwelling, a type once prevalent on the islands before the C19 brought higher standards of living.
