Description

North Harepath Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the early 18th century and was enlarged in the early 19th century, with some minor alterations made in the mid to late 20th century. The building is rendered over stone rubble and some cob, featuring a two-span gable-ended scantle slate roof. It has rendered end stacks, which probably have later red-brick top stages.

The farmhouse has a double depth plan, with a rear range that likely dates from the early 18th century and has external end stacks. The front range, which probably dates from the early 19th century, has a two-room central-entrance plan, with an external end stack to the right and an integral end stack to the left. There is an outshut on the left-hand gable end. The building is two storeys tall.

The exterior features a plinth and parapet at the front, with a symmetrical three-bay façade. It has boxed 16-pane glazing bar sashes with cills, although the central first-floor window is narrower than the outer windows. The right-hand ground-floor sash has been replaced by a 20th-century wooden cross window, and the left-hand ground-floor sash has been replaced by 20th-century French casements. The central entrance has an early 19th-century six-panelled door, with the lower panels flush, the middle panels beaded and fielded, and the upper panels glazed, topped with a semi-circular fanlight. There is evidence of a former gabled porch above the doorway. A 20th-century lean-to conservatory is located in front of the door and the left-hand French casements.

Inside, the front range features a central early 19th-century three-flight rectangular-well staircase with a boarded-over balustrade and a ramped handrail. There is an elliptical archway at the foot of the stairs leading to a passageway that connects to the rear range. The front range also contains early 19th-century six-panelled doors. The left-hand room in the rear range, which serves as a kitchen, has two chamfered cross beams. The rear range includes 18th-century doors, each with six raised and fielded panels. A pump is located in the lean-to addition at the rear. The ground-floor reception rooms and first-floor rooms were not inspected at the time of the survey in December 1987.
