Description

LUSTLEIGH SX 78 SE

1/183 Willmead Farmhouse -

  • II

Farmhouse. C16 or earlier, with later additions. Stone rubble with thatched roof. In centre of ridge a large granite ashlar chimneystack with thatch weatherings and tapered top. Probably a 3-room plan originally; not clear if stack backs on to a cross-passage or stands in front of entrance, forming a lobby entry (which would make it a rare house in Devon). 2 storeys, with single-storey addition to right. 4-window front to original range, the second bay from right having a 2-storeyed stone entrance-porch. Ground storey of porch has an old wooden outer door frame, probably round-headed (under creeper) with durn jambs; panelled, early C18 door at rear of porch. Windows have C20 wood casements with mullions and leaded panes. Closer inspection refused, but house is said to have a 'minstrels' gallery and an old roof. This is clearly a house of considerable quality and is likely to have features of interest inside.
