Description
Redheugh Farmhouse is a house that includes a bastle house, dating from the 16th or early 17th century, and remodelled in 1732 for William Charlton. It is constructed from random rubble stone with ashlar dressings, and has a graduated Lakeland slate roof. The building is two storeys high and originally comprised three bays, with a lower, one-bay extension added to the right.
The central entrance features a half-glazed door set within a raised stone surround, with a lintel inscribed "W C" in a moulded panel. On the ground floor, there are three sash windows in raised stone surrounds dating from 1732, with one being a 20th-century replacement. The first floor has three similar windows. The steeply-pitched gabled roof has flat coping and kneelers. On the right-hand return is a reused 16th-century doorhead with roll moulding and a seemingly meaningless inscription of letters and numbers.
Internally, the walls are approximately 36 inches thick, with two- and three-panelled doors. The drawing room features an 18th-century cornice decorated with vine scrolls, and a late 18th-century fireplace with gesso decoration.
