Rough Close And Adjoining Barns

Rough Close and the adjoining barns are a farmhouse and barns dating from the early 18th century. They feature whitewashed rubble walls topped with a graduated greenslate roof, along with stone and rendered chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a single-bay barn on the right under a common roof and a lower right-angled L-shaped barn to the left, creating an overall U-shape. There is a plank door in a wooden surround, and sash windows set in chamfered stone surrounds, with smaller fire windows flanking the ground floor window and one above. The barns have plank doors and open cart entrances, with slit vents positioned above. The rear of the house has 20th-century windows. Inside, there is an inglenook with a firebeam and beamed ceilings. The brick extensions to the barns are not considered of interest.
