Stayt'S Farm

Stayt’s Farm is a former farmhouse dating from the mid-17th to late 17th century, with a later 18th or early 19th century extension. It is constructed of limestone rubble with dressed stone quoins. The roof is covered in stone slate and features ashlar stacks, one of which was repaired in the 20th century using coursed squared and dressed limestone. The building has an 'L' shaped plan. It is two storeys and has an attic.

The front of the house has a gable that projects slightly to the right. The ground floor includes a four-light, double-chamfered stone-mullioned casement window with a stopped hood. To the left are a three-light metal casement within a double-chamfered surround, a single-light metal casement within a flat-chamfered stone surround, and a three-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood at the left gable end. The first floor has two 17th-century and one 20th-century three-light stone-mullioned casements with stopped hoods, a two-light stone-mullioned casement at the left gable end, and a double-chamfered two-light stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood in the attic. A single-light stairlight is positioned between the first and second floors in the centre of the facade. All windows have leaded panes, some with early handles. A 20th-century plank door is set within a dressed three-centred arched surround, off-centre left, and is accessed via a 20th-century gabled wooden porch with timber uprights. Seven pigeon holes are visible at first-floor level in the right gable end.

The interior features spine beams and transverse beams with cushion-moulded and diamond stops. There's an inglenook fireplace with a Tudor-arched bressumer. A section of splat balustrade has been reused over an early doorway. A piece of strapwork frieze including a sunflower motif is also present. A dressed stone fireplace with a moulded Tudor arch now contains a 19th-century cast-iron hob grate with floral decoration.
