Fennells Farmhouse

Fennells Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse dating from the late 16th century, with a late 17th century cross wing added to the south. It is constructed of random rubble limestone, featuring ashlar chimneys, and has roofs made of stone slate and concrete plain tiles. The building is two-storey with an attic and is designed in an L-shape.

On the east side, the parapet gable end of the cross wing projects forward to the left and has a single-window layout, with a three-light casement on the upper floor and a two-light casement in the attic, both of which are chamfered mullioned casements with hoodmoulds. The gable features a cross roll saddle. The earlier wing to the right includes a 19th-century outbuilding and a pentice addition, both covered by a large catslide roof. There is part of the structure that is open-fronted, supported by two tapering monolithic stone posts. A doorway with a chamfered opening, remnants of decorative moulding stops, a hoodmould, and a plank door is located in a section of wall that projects forward from the main wall, possibly indicating a former gabled porch that was dismantled during 19th-century alterations. To the right of the doorway, there is a two-light recessed cavetto mullioned casement with a hoodmould.

The north end features a parapet gable with a chimney that has a moulded cap. There are four single-light casements, three of which are recessed cavetto moulded with hoodmoulds. On the west side, the earlier wing originally had a two-window fenestration, though one window is obscured by a later lean-to addition. The ground floor has a three-light casement and two two-light upper floor casements, all of which are recessed cavetto mullioned with hoodmoulds. The parapet gable end of the cross wing to the right has a gable-mounted chimney with a moulded cap. At attic level, two apparently 13th-century lancets have been reset, along with one two-light casement.

On the south side, the front of the cross wing features two and three-light chamfered mullioned casements, two of which have hoodmoulds on the ground floor. There is an off-centre lobby-entry doorway with a deep stone lintel and a plank door.

Inside, the beams in the late 16th-century part of the house have stepped chamfer stops. The farmhouse has been recorded since 1573.
