Description

Moor Farm House is a farmhouse dating from around the 18th century, with some work from the 17th century at the rear. It is constructed of granite rubble and has a slate roof with gabled ends. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays. It features large 19th-century three-light casement windows with flat stone arches. The central entrance has a flush panel door, flanked by sidelights, and is sheltered by a stone porch with a hipped slate roof. There are large stone chimneystacks at both gable ends. At the rear, there is a 17th-century wing with a gable-ended roof and a stone window frame, although the mullions are missing. Additionally, there is a 19th-century rear addition in the angle.
