Marcliff

Marcliff is a farmhouse, later converted into two cottages and now again a single house, dating from the 17th or 18th century. The exterior is rendered on a rubble base, with a steeply pitched corrugated asbestos roof. It features a brick end stack on the left, an axial stack towards the left, a large rendered end stack on the right, and three dormer windows that break the roofline, the left-hand dormer being gabled. The original layout was likely a three-room and through or cross-passage plan, with a short, gable-ended projection at the higher end of the hall, probably serving as a hall bay, and a similar projection above. The house is two storeys high, with the first floor partly within the roof space, and has a four-window range featuring 20th-century casement windows. There are wide window openings to the gabled projection and a very wide window with a pair of windows on the ground floor to the right. A doorway, sheltered by an open porch, has a glazed and panelled door with a sidelight to the left. The interior contains no features of particular interest.
