Lucehayne Farmhouse

Lucehayne Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early to mid 17th century, with significant alterations made in the late 18th to early 19th centuries. It is constructed of colour-washed local stone and flint rubble, featuring stone rubble stacks, one of which is topped with 20th-century brick, while the other at the south end has a late 18th to early 19th-century brick chimney shaft that includes an illegible Beerstone plaque. The roof is thatched.

The farmhouse has a two-room plan and faces east, with gable-end stacks and integral service outshots at the rear. The main entrance is located at the left (south) end. The partition between the two main rooms has been removed, and the right (north) end stack was likely added during the late 18th to early 19th centuries when the outshots were rebuilt and the house was refurbished. The building is two storeys high.

The exterior features an irregular two-window front with late 19th and 20th-century casements that include glazing bars. The roof is hipped on the right side and gable-ended on the left. The doorway in the left end wall has a late 19th to early 20th-century four-panel door.

Inside, most of the features are the result of late 18th to early 19th-century and later modernisations, although some 17th-century carpentry remains in the front rooms. The former left (south) room, which was the larger of the two, has a chamfered and step-stopped crossbeam, and its fireplace has been altered but retains a chamfered oak lintel. The former right room has a chamfered axial beam, and its fireplace is from the 20th century. The roof space is inaccessible, and the trusses are boxed into the first-floor partitions.
