Rock House

Rock House is a house dating from the 16th century, with alterations and additions from the 17th century and later. It is constructed of rubble, coursed at the front and random elsewhere, and features a plain tiled roof with weathered external gable stacks and hexagonal ashlar chimneys that have coping and a decorative frieze. The original layout included an open hall with two cross wings, forming a U-shape.

The house is 2½ storeys tall and has three gables on the front, with a symmetrical arrangement of windows: one, one, and one. The windows are all three and four-light casements with chamfered lintels and mullions, and there are relieving arches above them. To the right of the center, there is a door with a freestone surround featuring a 4-centred arch, scroll and hollow moulding with straight-cut stops, and a heavy studded door with strap hinges. A 20th-century porch has been added. Each side wing has an inner gable with a three-light window on the first floor.

On the west side, there are two gables with three-light windows on both the ground and first floors to the left, similar to those on the front. The east side has a single gable with a two-light and a single-light window on the first floor, and a 20th-century window on the ground floor, all under timber lintels. The rear features three gables with a window arrangement of one, two, and two, all with two and three-light casements like those on the front, but without relieving arches. The outer gables have single-light windows with chamfered lintels. There is a former door to the cellar on the right, which is now blocked, and a cellar window with a chamfered lintel. A single-storey 20th-century extension with a door is also present.

Inside, the window mullions are ovolo-moulded on the inside and feature elaborate catches decorated with three spirals. The hall fireplace has a wooden bolection-moulded surround, which has been shortened to accommodate a 20th-century stair. The kitchen beam has deep chamfers, and the fireplace includes an 18th-century stone surround that was brought from a house in Bristol. The back door to the hall is in an ovolo-moulded wooden frame with flat, scroll, and notch stops, and there are panelled doors throughout.
