Description
Dymonds is a house that likely dates from the late 17th century and was remodeled and extended around the late 18th or early 19th century. It is constructed of stone rubble and has a plastered front. The roof is made of grouted scantle slate with red clay ridge tiles. The gable end stacks are rendered, featuring louvred yellow clay pots; the right-hand stack projects while the left-hand stack is adjacent to the neighboring house.
The house has a double depth plan. The two main rooms at the front are part of the original structure, with the room on the right being larger. Both rooms are heated by gable end stacks. The central entrance likely leads to a passage with a staircase at the back. At the rear, there are two shallow service rooms that were probably added in the late 18th or early 19th century as part of a two-storey outshut. In the late 19th century, another house was added on the left end, which may represent a late 19th-century remodeling of what was originally a three-room plan house.
The exterior is two storeys high with a slightly asymmetrical two-window front, featuring late 18th or early 19th-century 16-pane sashes, with the first-floor sashes being smaller. The doorway, located to the left of center, has a 19th-century glazed and panelled door with a canopy made from a single large piece of slate supported by wooden cantilevers. The rear elevation includes a late 18th or early 19th-century casement window on the left, a 20th-century casement on the right, and a doorway at the far right end.
Inside, the left-hand ground floor room features a chamfered cross-beam, though its stops are not visible. The rest of the interior was not observed but may contain some features and joinery from the 18th or early 19th century.
