Description
Fernbank is a building that was originally three cottages, now combined into one. It dates from the 18th century, with a later 18th-century extension on the lower level to the right and a 20th-century extension on the left. The structure is made of limestone rubble and has a thatched roof. There are 20th-century artificial stone stacks, one located at the right gable end of the main body and another off-center to the left. The main block is one room deep, consisting of one storey and an attic, while the extensions on both sides are single storey.
The main body features three thatched dormers, each with 2-light 20th-century metal casements that include glazing bars, similar to the windows below. The right extension has two late 18th-century or early 19th-century casements with glazing bars, one of which was formerly a mullioned window. There is a 20th-century unpainted studded plank door with cover strips and a curved metal canopy above, positioned off-center to the right.
