Kenn Pier Farmhouse

Kenn Pier Farmhouse is a 16th-century farmhouse that has undergone significant alterations, including the removal of thatch and raising of the roof in the early 20th century. The building is constructed of rubble and rendered, topped with a double Roman tiled roof featuring ridge and gable stacks. Originally designed with a three-room plan and a through passage, it has been extended to the right to accommodate a dairy, with the ridge stack previously located at the gable end.

The farmhouse is one and a half storeys high and has four windows. On the ground floor, from the left, there is a two-light casement, a three-light casement, and a door in between, with two additional two-light casements above. A stack and oven project to the right, while the former dairy has a 20th-century window, a French window, a door, and a glazed porch. Above, there are two gabled dormers with four-pane sashes. The left side features a small single-storey addition and a brick buttress, while the right side has a single-storey 20th-century addition.

At the rear, the roof level has been raised to the right over a French window and a casement on the first floor. To the left, there is a single light at both the ground and first floors, along with a small two-light casement at the first floor. A single-storey flat-roofed addition at the rear center includes a three-light casement and two doors.

Inside, the room to the left features a framed ceiling with deep-chamfered beams and a fireplace with a heavy chamfered and stopped lintel, along with rebuilt jambs. There is a plank and batten door in an ovolo-moulded frame, and a newel stair enclosed to the rear left with a similar door. The central room has been subdivided but retains chamfered beams. The room at the former gable end to the right includes a wide fireplace in a moulded surround, a panelled cupboard door in the position of the former oven, and panelled cupboards with L-hinges—one in the front wall and two at the rear. The front windows also have panelled shutters, and the room features very deep-chamfered beams and battered walls. On the first floor, a passage has been created along the rear by a screen partition, likely dating to the late 18th or early 19th century, although the roof construction is not visible.
