Description
Sand Park is a tenement farmhouse with an attached stable range, built around 1830-1840. The building is constructed of painted stone rubble and features a slate roof with brick stacks at the gable ends. The stable range is unrendered and has slate hanging at the front gable end. The farmhouse has a symmetrical layout with two rooms and a central staircase, extending one and a half rooms deep. The stable range projects forward as a wing at the left gable end.
The structure is two storeys high and has a two-window range, with the central window being blind. The 19th-century windows are well-preserved, featuring 12-paned sashes above 16-paned sashes. A flat-roofed central porch with arched timber struts leads to a two-panelled door, where the upper half is glazed with margin glazing bars. The stable range is lofted and includes external stone steps at the rear gable end, a plank door with an arched timber lintel at the back, and a blocked doorway at the front. There is also a 16-paned sash window at the front gable end. The house remains largely unspoilt, retaining its 19th-century joinery and fittings.
