Description
Webbery Barton is a farmhouse dating from around 1700 to 1720, with a wing on the left side of the front that was rebuilt in the early to mid-19th century. The building is constructed of coursed slatestone rubble, with colourwashed render on the front and rear of the 18th-century block. The left range features a hipped slate roof and 19th-century brick end stacks that are set externally, while the right range has a gabled slate roof with a quarter hip at the front, along with 19th-century brick end and ridge stacks.
The early to mid-19th century range on the left forms an L-shape with a rear left wing, while the two-unit range from around 1700 to 1720 creates a cross wing to the right, which has a gabled front. The farmhouse is two storeys high. The early to mid-19th century symmetrical two-storey range on the left has three windows, with brick segmental arches over horned late 19th-century twelve-pane sash windows, and flat brick arches over 20th-century three-light casements on the first floor.
To the right of the front, the early 18th-century two-storey gable end features a symmetrical three-window range with keyed segmental arches and moulded sills framing horned late 19th-century twelve-pane sashes, along with a 20th-century inserted door to the left. There is a raised storey band and a pedimented gable with a blind lunette in the tympanum. The right side wall has blocked windows set in similar early 18th-century architraves, while the left side wall includes a 20th-century porch and a mid-19th century cartshed to the rear, as well as a mid-19th century outshut and bay to the rear right.
Inside the early 18th-century range on the right, the front room features fine bolection-moulded panelling, shutters, and doors, with keyed and raised architraves on the windows, including entwined monograms on the key to the front. There are mid-19th century cupboard doors covering blocked windows on the right and an early 18th-century fireplace with scrolled brackets supporting the mantel. The early 19th-century quarter-turn staircase with a landing is located to the left, along with mid-18th century two-panelled doors with brass handles. The 19th-century range on the left has not been fully inspected. This building is situated on the site of a Domesday Manor.
