Description
Marianne Pool Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that was enlarged mainly in the 19th century. It is constructed of roughcast cob on stone footings and features a hipped thatched roof. Originally designed as a three-room, cross-passage plan house, it has been extended at both ends with a 19th-century rear wing. The gabled porch indicates the location of the passage; the hall, located to the right, is heated by an external rear lateral stack, while the inner room is heated by an axial stack that was originally positioned at the end. The extended service end has an internal end stack, and the current right-hand end stack is a late 19th-century addition. All stacks have brick shafts.
The farmhouse has two storeys and a front elevation that features a six-window range with a well-preserved set of 19th-century casement windows, mostly consisting of three lights. All windows, except for the two ground-floor windows on the left side, have transoms, with two panes per light below the transom and each upper pane subdivided into four. There is a pentice roof over the kitchen window and door on the left, and the passage door is located under a tiled, gabled brick porch. The rear of the house has two and three-light casement windows, mostly from the 19th century, with one window featuring leaded panes and colored glass.
Inside, the hall has a ceiling beam that is chamfered with ovolo moulding, fillet, and scroll stops. The roof consists of three 17th-century trusses that are morticed and pegged at the apex, with collars that are notched and lapped, and the purlins and ridge-piece are threaded.
