Wyse'S Engleborne

Wyse's Engleborne is a house that was formerly a farmhouse, dating from the 18th century, with a mid-19th century extension. It is constructed from slate rubble, with some areas slate hung, and features a grouted scantle slate hipped roof topped with early crested ridge tiles. The building has stone rubble chimney stacks with brick shafts. The layout consists of a three-room plan, with the lower end to the left and two higher rooms on the right, which are heated by rear lateral stacks. The unheated room on the lower left end is accompanied by an outbuilding that includes stables and a loft at the extreme left end. In front of the higher end, a parallel range with a two-room plan was added in the mid-19th century, featuring a symmetrical facade and gable end stacks.

The house is two storeys high. The 18th-century section has its back (north) facing the road, with two tall red brick chimney shafts rising from the rear wall. The south front has a slate-hung first floor and a two-window range of 19th-century two-light casements. To the left of the lower end is a stable with a lower level half-hipped roof, a plank door to the right, and external stone stairs leading to a loft door. Below the eaves, there is a row of pigeon holes with slate ledges. The loft stairs have an opening below, likely a dog kennel. Facing north, at the angle with the mid-19th century extension to the right, is a porch with a slate-hung stair tower above and a lean-to outbuilding at the gable end of the 19th-century addition.

The mid-19th century extension has large gable end stacks with set-offs and is also two storeys high, featuring a three-window slate-hung front with 19th-century 16-pane sashes and a small central first-floor fixed window with six panes. The higher east ends of both ranges are stuccoed and designed as the entrance front. The right-hand side has two 19th-century 16-pane sash windows, a ground floor tripartite sash, and a panelled door with an overlight. The left-hand projecting end of the 19th-century addition has a ground floor 19th-century sash and a blind window above. Inside, the property remains largely unaltered since the 19th century, retaining much of its original joinery, including stairs with stick balusters and turned newels, shutters, and doors.
