Scarsdale House Farmhouse And Attached Barn

Scarsdale House Farmhouse and the attached barn date from 1723. The farmhouse is built of rubble limestone, with cement rendering, gritstone dressings, and quoins. It features a Welsh slate roof with stone coped gables, moulded and plain kneelers, and a ball finial. There are two stone ridge stacks and a stone gable end stack. The building is two storeys high, with a double fronted south elevation. The central doorway has a moulded stone surround with the date WM 1723 inscribed on the lintel, and a bracketed stone hood above. The door is a 20th-century half glazed type. On either side of the doorway are windows with stone surrounds and 19th-century casement lights, which likely originally had mullions. There are three similar windows on the upper floor. An attached drystone garden wall features rounded copings. Inside, there is a standard 18th-century fireplace with a bracketed stone lintel and a staircase with flat fretted balusters. The barn, attached to the east, has a continuous roof and an irregular south elevation that includes a cart entrance and four partially blocked doorways with segmental heads, along with three openings above that also have segmental heads.
