Description

Corndon Farmhouse is a farmhouse, formerly a longhouse, dating from the 16th or 17th century with later additions. It is constructed of granite rubble and has an asbestos-slated roof. A large granite ashlar chimneystack with thatch weathering and a tapered top is located on the ridge at the right-hand end, while a smaller rendered stack with weathering and a plain, flat projecting cap is found on the left-hand gable. The layout is likely a three-room and through-passage plan, although the lower end, known to have been a shippon, has been demolished. The hall stack backs onto the through-passage. The farmhouse has two storeys, with a single-storey porch at the front and a single-storey lean-to at the rear. It features three windows across the front, all of which have 20th-century plastic casements. There is an old plank door in the right-hand bay of the ground storey, with a granite porch in front. The interior has not been inspected, but the owner reports a chamfered upper-floor beam and likely other interesting features concealed under plaster.
