Description
Grey Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 16th century, originally designed as a hall house with an inserted floor. The building is constructed of roughcast stone rubble and features a thatched roof with half hipped and gabled ends. There is a later wing on the left side (south-west) that has a lower thatched roof with a half hipped end. The farmhouse has two storeys and a five-window range, which includes two, three, and four light ovolo moulded stone mullion windows with hood moulds and leaded panes. The left-hand doorway leads to a cross passage and has a modern Tudor style window inserted to the side. The structure includes stone ridge and end chimney stacks, and there is a later stone rubble outshut at the rear with a tiled roof.
Inside, the farmhouse features jointed cruck trusses with smoke-blackening, a cross passage with a timber frame screen, and a central stack with a cambered bressummer above the fireplace. There is another open fireplace at the lower end, which has a chamfered bressummer that extends to form a round arch over the side opening. The staircase is surrounded by a plank and muntin screen, and the ceilings have stopped chamfered beams.
