Description
Broadmead is a house that was remodeled and enlarged in the early to mid 19th century, likely based on a structure dating from the 17th century or early 18th century. The building is made of rendered stone rubble and has an asbestos slate roof, which is gabled at the right end and hipped at the left end, with a hipped end on the rear wing. A large rendered gable-end chimney stack is located at the right end, featuring set-offs and a tapered cap, while a smaller chimney shaft is positioned over the left end.
The plan suggests that this may have originally been the higher end of a three-room plan house or a small two-room plan cottage from the 17th century, with the higher end on the right. The house was remodeled and enlarged in the early to mid 19th century to create a two-room layout with a central stair hall, along with a rear wing added to the lower left end. This wing appears to have been raised, and an outshut was constructed in the angle behind the front range, possibly in the late 19th century.
The exterior is two storeys high, with a nearly symmetrical southeast front featuring a three-window range. The first floor has three early 19th-century 12-pane sash windows. On the ground floor, there are two smaller early 19th-century 12-pane sashes with thicker glazing bars, a central doorway with an early 19th-century flush panel door, and a small rectangular overlight. A late 19th-century glazed porch with a finial is situated over the gable. The rear wing appears to have been raised and its cellar filled in.
The interior has only been partly inspected, but it seems that the 19th-century joinery remains intact, including panelled doors. The staircase has been replaced in the 20th century.
