Lumholme And Adjoining Barn Range

Lumholme and the adjoining barn range is a house and outbuildings dating from the late 17th century or 18th century, with later alterations and additions. The structure is built of stone rubble, with some parts roughcast, and features slate roofs, although the end of the outbuilding has a corrugated iron roof.

The building is arranged in an L-plan. The south-east elevation has three storeys and three bays, with a two-storey bay added to the right and a short arm of the barn range to the left. The ground floor includes a 20th-century window with flat slate mullions in a 19th-century opening to the first bay; the third bay features a four-light wooden chamfered-mullioned window, which has been partially restored, and a two-light fire window. The first floor has three 19th-century three-light windows with casements, while the attic has three small windows with small-paned fixed glazing. The entrance is located between the first and second bays and consists of a plank door. The two-storey bay has casements, and there are three gable-end stacks, with the one on the third bay being large and squat.

The adjacent outbuilding has a cart entrance and wrestler slates to the ridge. The north-east elevation of the long range of outbuildings features three cow house entrances, a through passage, and two pitching doors at the south-east end. The north-west end forms a barn with a stable to the left of a large entrance. The inner angle of the outbuildings is cut back for a well. The north-west elevation of the house has a large gabled wing with swept valleys and wooden chamfered-mullioned windows of two and three lights; the outbuilding includes a pivoted door. The south-west elevation of the outbuildings has a barn entrance with a timber lintel and pentice; the through passage has a pivoted gate, and the end features a pitching hole and a blocked entrance.

Inside, the building has chamfered beams, a fireplace with a bulkhead and wood neck, and bible holes. The parlour fireplace has an ogee-moulded surround, and the dairy includes slate shelves. There is an oak stair in straight flights around a solid core, wide-board doors, and stud and plaster partitions on the first floor. The attic contains two upper cruck trusses and an old pegged door.
