Haverstock Farmhouse

Haverstock Farmhouse is a farmhouse with medieval origins that was modified in the early 17th century, and again in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of painted rubble slate, with Welsh slate on the front slope of the roof and synthetic slate on the rear. The building has a three-room, cross-passage plan, although the passage and lower end to the right have been much reduced. There is a continuous low outshut at the rear, and the farmhouse has two storeys.

The front features an irregular two-window range and a massive external lateral stack that has set-offs, which is rendered on the lower parts only. A pentice porch has been built around the stack, with a door located to the right. The windows are two-light casements. To the right, there is a lean-to with a doorway that likely indicates the former location of the cross-passage. At the rear, the outshut continues across the site of the reduced lower end, rising to a much higher level than the lean-to that now occupies that site. The left return of the building has casement windows.

Inside, the left-hand room, which serves as a parlour, features an ovolo-moulded ceiling beam with stepped run-out stops and joists that have scratch mouldings. The fireplace bressumer also has ovolo moulding and raised run-outs, along with curious incised decoration. The roof is understood to be a 19th-century replacement.
