Description
Allolee Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the mid-18th century and was extended in the early 19th century. It is constructed of squared stone and features graduated stone-tiled and slate roofs, along with stone chimneys. The building has two storeys and three wide bays, with a rubble plinth and roughly-squared quoins.
A 19th-century gabled stone porch is located on the right side, featuring a four-panel door and an overlight. To the left of the porch is a small re-set stone with Roman lettering in a sunk panel. There is a blocked doorway with alternating jambs on the left, flanked by 20th-century three-light windows. The right end bay has a replaced sash window, and there are three replaced sashes in small openings just below the eaves. The roof is primarily stone-tiled, with left end and ridge stacks that include water tables.
On the left side, there is a single-storey, two-bay range that has a replaced sash window and a slate roof. At the rear, there is a single-storey outshut with a roof that is partly stone-tiled and partly slated. Inside, there are two pairs of boxed-in upper crucks made of heavy scantling. A single-storey farm building on the right side is not considered to be of special interest.
