Holmhurst

Holmhurst is a cottage dating from the 17th century that underwent extensive alterations in the mid to late 19th century. It is constructed from local stone random rubble and features a double Roman tile roof that is half hipped on the left with a gablet, overhanging eaves, and sprockets. The building has a brick stack on the right gable end and a lateral stone stack in the center, which includes a slate-roofed bread oven projection.

The cottage has an L-plan layout, likely consisting of two cells with an extended rear wing, possibly housing a stair turret, and an agricultural wing added to the right gable end. It stands one and a half storeys tall, with a gabled dormer on the right that rises from the eaves. The ground floor to the left of the stack wall features a built-out section with a reset four-light ovolo moulded mullioned window, while the right side has a segmental-headed two-light window with a brick arch, which may have been an earlier entrance. There is a lower independently roofed wing on the right that is unlit on the facade, with an entrance on the left return accessed via a 19th-century lean-to porch set at an angle, which may connect to the possible stair turret projection in the rear wing. The interior has not been seen.
