Description
Rollstone Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse, with an early 18th-century bay added to the right. A shippon to the left was remodelled in the mid-19th century and 20th century into a separate dwelling. The farmhouse is constructed of coursed slatestone rubble with colourwashed render to the first floor. It has a gabled slate roof, with artificial slates to the rear, and rendered stone ridge and end stacks.
The original plan comprised two units, extended to three with a blocked through-passage to the right of the central hall. The farmhouse presents as a two-storey, five-window range. A gabled porch, built in the mid-19th century, features a round-arched outer doorway and a 20th-century inner door. The windows are 20th-century two- and four-light casements, set within flat rendered arches. A dairy outshut, rendered, extends to the rear. The shippon to the left has been remodelled as a two-storey dwelling.
Inside, the ground floor includes fireplaces with chamfered bressummers. One room has stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, and a plank door set in a beaded frame leads to the dairy, which has a stone-flag floor in the rear outshut. Another room has a plank door set within a similar architrave. The roof structure features A-frame trusses with pegged collars.
