Perry Ash

Perry Ash is a farmhouse with origins dating back to the 16th century, which underwent remodelling in the 17th century and has seen renovations in the 20th century. It is constructed from whitewashed stone rubble and features a 20th-century Delabole slate roof that is gabled at both ends. Rendered chimneys are located at the gabled ends of the main block. The original layout likely consisted of two or three rooms with a through passage, and there is a 16th-century stack that backs into this passage. A datestone from 1647 suggests that the inner room may have been added or rebuilt during this time, which includes a projecting semi-circular stair turret similar to that found at Woodmanswell Cottage. The passage and lower end of the house no longer exist, although there is a small addition at the lower end of the hall stack, which has a slightly lower roof.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front with two windows. It features a 20th-century front door and an additional entrance on the left side of the front. The fenestration is irregular, with two 20th-century two-light casements and one fixed one-light window with glazing bars.

Inside, there is a massive granite fireplace with a lintel supported by a corbel on one side. The hall contains one cross beam and a slate floor. The inner room has exposed ceiling beams and a large fireplace with a chamfered fireplace lintel. The room features 17th-century waney joists with chamfers, and although it has been blocked, it retains stone hollow-chamfered jambs and a lintel, with the jambs displaying pyramid stops. The roof timbers were replaced in the late 20th century, and there is a new timber newel stair.
