Description
Gilclose is a farmhouse, likely built in the early 17th century and altered in the mid 19th century. It is rendered over rubble with a slate roof and features overhanging eaves. There is a roughcast stack located between the first and second bays on the left, and a lateral stack at the rear. The building has a plan consisting of three cells and a cross passage, with single-storey outbuildings attached at the south-west corner. It stands two storeys high and has three bays, with three-light leaded casements. On the ground floor, there are two windows to the left of a single-storey gabled porch, with outbuildings to the right. The interior has not been seen. Gilclose forms a good group with the farm buildings located to the north.
