Description
High Sheen Farmhouse and attached stables are a 17th-century building with 19th and 20th-century additions and alterations. The structure is made of rough-faced, coursed stone with dressed details. The farmhouse has a slate roof, while the additions have a tile roof. There is an end stack to the left and a centre ridge stack. The building has a lobby-entrance plan with a parlour on the left end.
The house is two storeys high with a three-window front. The left end features stepped chamfered openings that were formerly mullioned, with three and two lights on the first floor and a cavetto labelled opening that was originally five lights on the ground floor, but altered to a single aluminium light in the 1980s. The right end has a range of sash-type openings, all of which are 20th-century PVC casements. There is a mid-19th-century single-storey gabled projection in the centre with one window.
On the right return, there is a 17th-century chamfered surround with a labelled datestone above, which may have been reused from the main house. This side also features a 20th-century casement and a glazed door in the return angle. Attached to the right end are lower outbuildings that include two stables, which have windows—one of which is a four-pane sash—and two hay loft openings above. The stable doors are vented and boarded.
Inside, the original front door remains on the main face of the building, featuring moulded surrounds, imposts, and moulded low-relief crenellations above.
