Copyhill And Adjoining Barns

Copyhill and adjoining barns are a farmhouse and barns dated 1754, with the initials J & M B inscribed over the entrance. The structure incorporates part of a 17th-century house and features mixed slate and cobble walls set on large projecting plinth stones. The roof is made of graduated greenslate and has rendered brick chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a single-bay former house to the right and a barn to the left, all under a common roof.

The entrance has a plank door framed by an alternate-block sandstone surround. There are casement windows in original sandstone surrounds, with one ground floor window retaining its original flat stone mullion. The former house includes a plank door beneath a large lintel stone, a ground floor two-light chamfered stone-mullioned window, and a narrow sandstone-surround window above. The barn features two plank doors under a common wooden lintel and has a loft above. At the rear, there is an outshut with a two-light stone-mullioned window. A garage or cart shed to the right is not of interest.
