Description
Ash House is a small oblong building located about 20 metres north-west of Waye Farmhouse. It dates from the 19th century or earlier and is constructed of granite rubble with a flat roof made of long pieces of granite laid crosswise. The building features a doorway in the short south-east wall, with the lintel and main parts of the jambs made from single large pieces of granite. The right-hand jamb is fitted with two large iron hinges for a door.
In the centre of the roof, one of the long granite pieces has been omitted, replaced by short pieces of granite laid lengthways, creating an aperture at the top of each long side wall. On the south-west side, this aperture has been lengthened, likely to facilitate the insertion of ashes. The status of the aperture on the north-east side is uncertain, as it is adjacent to a field belonging to a neighbouring farm.
