West Pennicknold Including Adjoing Barn

This is a late 18th-century farmhouse with a likely mid-19th century addition. It is constructed of rendered rubble with a gable-ended slate roof and brick stacks at both ends, along with a large rendered stack to the rear of an outshut, which has a brick shaft. The original farmhouse has a two-room plan, featuring a larger kitchen/living room on the left and a smaller parlour or service room on the right, which may have originally been unheated. Around the mid-19th century, a substantial rear outshut was added, including a dairy, scullery, and back kitchen. Also at this time, a large barn/animal house range was built at the right end, incorporating a threshing barn on the first floor and an engine house at a higher ground level. The front of the farmhouse has an asymmetrical four-window facade. The upper windows retain original 16-pane hornless sashes, while the lower windows are later replacements that replicate the originals. A gabled porch, dating to the 19th century, is located to the right of the centre, and contains a 20th-century glazed door. A lower stone barn is at the right-hand end, with remnants of a horse engine house facing the rear yard. The engine house has a wide central doorway, narrower doorways at each end, and two first-floor loading hatches. Inside the main left-hand room is a large open fireplace with a plain wooden lintel, and a possible original built-in cupboard with a panelled door.
