Description
Horseshoe Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 15th century to early 16th century, with alterations made in the late 16th to early 17th century and the 18th century. It is constructed of rubble and features a thatched roof with overhanging eaves, along with some stone slates at the rear and rendered stacks. The building is an open hall house, possibly a longhouse, designed in an L shape with a hall and pantry to the east and a contemporary rear service wing.
The south elevation was raised in the 18th century and consists of a single storey with attics that have 'eyebrow' dormers. It has three bays, with the centre bay projecting slightly. The windows include a mix of 16-pane glazing bar sash windows and 2-light casements, along with two outer 20th-century doors. There is a 2-light casement window with small square wooden mullions on the east gable and in the centre of the rear elevation, as well as a single storey rear wing.
Inside, the farmhouse features stop-chamfered beams and a kitchen fireplace with stop-chamfered ashlar jambs. The roof contains three tie beam trusses, and there is evidence of windbraces in the rear wing, along with considerable smoke blackening.
