Description

A house with an adjoining barn, likely dating to the late 17th or early 18th century, with a datestone inscribed “IPA/1764”. The house is built of stone rubble, with a roughcast finish. It is two storeys high and originally four bays wide, though the first bay was probably added later. A barn adjoins the house to the right. The windows are casements, with the second bay of the first floor featuring a window with fixed small-paned glazing and upper opening lights. The first bay has no windows, but contains the entrance under a dripcourse. The third bay has an entrance topped with a gabled slate hood. The house has a cross-axial stack and a gable-end stack. The barn incorporates inserted garage doors and a gabled wing with a pitching hole. The left return side has a first-floor window with a dripstone and small-paned fixed glazing. The rear elevation includes a stair wing under a cat slide roof. The first bay features a three-light wooden, chamfered-mullioned window with intermediate bars. The third bay provides access via an entrance, while the fourth bay has no windows on the rear elevation. Inside, a datestone appears above an inserted fireplace, and a winding stair rises along a bowed inner wall of the stair wing, alongside chamfered beams. The barn contains two collar and tie beam trusses and one kingpost truss.
