Description
Guerins is a small farmhouse, likely dating from the 17th century. It has cob walls resting on a rubble plinth, with the front (southeast) side plastered. The left-hand gable has been rebuilt using late 19th-century brick. There are two cob stacks at the rear, which have been topped with brick above the eaves. The roof is thatched, and the building has two storeys. The ground floor contains three rooms and two front doors. There are four 19th-century casement windows on the ground floor and three on the first floor. The interior features 19th and early 20th-century fittings that obscure the original layout and features.
