Colston Barton

Colston Barton is a farmhouse that dates from the 17th century or earlier, with some alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed from whitewashed rendered stone and cob, topped with a concrete tile roof that was originally thatched. The building has gabled ends and features a left end stack with a truncated shaft, along with two rear lateral projecting stacks and a third lateral stack added in the 20th century.

The farmhouse has a single depth plan, likely consisting of three rooms and a cross passage, with a two-storey porch at the lower end to the right. The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front with six windows. To the right of the centre, there is a two-storey gabled porch that contains a 20th-century two-leaf glazed door, while the left side of the porch has the remains of a verandah. The left of the porch features 19th-century small pane timber casements, while two of the windows to the right of the porch have been replaced with 20th-century metal frames.

The interior has not been fully inspected, but it includes an exposed cross beam in the top right-hand room and a plastered-over intersecting beamed ceiling with moulded cornices in the room to the left of the porch.
