Description
Well House Farmhouse is a former house, which was later divided into two cottages, and now serves as farm buildings. It dates from the 18th century, with some alterations made in the 19th century. The building is constructed of coursed squared buff sandstone rubble and features a Kerridge stone-slate roof with two stone chimneys. It has a long rectangular plan. The house on the left is two storeys high and has four bays. There is a door in the left end bay with a primitive stone architrave, and a door in the right end bay that has been inserted but is now blocked, sitting under a plain stone lintel. The windows are three-light square-sectioned stone mullions. The barn to the right has only a blocked doorway. At the rear of the house, there is a tall outshut addition.
