Description
Langabeer Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around the mid-17th century, with alterations from the 19th century and a late 19th-century addition. It features plastered cob walls and rubble with brick dressings on the rear wing, topped by a gable-ended slate roof. The front range has two gable end stacks, each made of rubble with brick shafts, and a brick gable end stack on the rear wing.
The original layout of the farmhouse included a front range with two rooms and a central passage, each room heated by an end stack, although the left-hand stack may have been added later. In the late 19th century, a kitchen wing was added at the rear, with a parallel dairy range to its left. The original screens passage was removed, creating one large room.
The exterior is two storeys high with an asymmetrical front featuring two early to mid-20th-century casement windows—two-light on the left and three-light on the right. There is a late 19th or early 20th-century gabled timber porch to the right of centre, which has a 19th-century plank door behind it.
Inside, there are remains of a plank and muntin screen to the left of the front door, featuring chamfered muntins with notched stops and a longitudinal panel at the top. Two chamfered cross beams are present, with the right-hand beam serving as the head-beam for a screen on the opposite side of the passage, showing mortices in its soffit. The fireplace at the right end has a curved back and a low cambered and chamfered lintel. A wall cupboard from the early to mid-19th century is located in the rear wall, featuring moulded panels on the doors and a dentilled cornice. Substantial feet of straight principal rafters are visible on the first floor.
