Little Weir Farmhouse

Little Weir Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates back to the 17th century and was remodeled in the early 20th century. It is constructed from rendered stone and cob, with a slate roof that has a gable end on the right and a hipped end on the left. The farmhouse features a tall rubble stack with a tapered cap, a drip, and offsets at the right gable end, as well as at the rear gable end of the left side wing.

The layout is nearly symmetrical with a two-room through-passage plan, which may have been extended at the left end in the late 17th or 18th century by the addition of a wing and to the rear by a two-storey dairy extension. The building is two storeys high and has a three-window range of gabled half dormers with 6 over 2 paned sashes. There are twin 8-paned horned sashes on either side of a brick porch that has a slated gabled roof. The wing features a two-light casement with 6 panes per light above a plank door.

Inside, the hall has stop-chamfered beams, and there is an ovolo-moulded door surround leading to the staircase at the rear of the hall. The staircase, located in the through-passage, has turned 17th-century balusters and a moulded handrail at the top. There is an old three-plank ledged door, battened to create nine square panels. A single 17th-century truss with straight heavy principals, trenches for purlins, a lap-jointed collar, and part of a ridge purlin is preserved over the hall, while the remaining trusses were likely replaced in the 19th century. Additionally, seven possibly 17th-century rafter couples remain over the wing.
