Description

Greenover Orchard is a former shippon that belonged to Greenover Farmhouse, now converted into a house. It dates from the 18th or 19th century and was transformed into a residence in the 1980s. The building is constructed of stone rubble and features a slated roof. It has two storeys. The ground floor has wide segmental-arched doorways at either end, with arches made of voussoirs; the arch on the left is of poorer quality, indicating it may have been added later. In the center, there are two windows with similar arches, with the right window possibly being a later addition. There is one window in the upper storey. The building is included for its group value.
