Description
Summer Lodge Farmhouse and Outbuildings is a farmhouse and associated outbuildings constructed in 1789. The building features roughcast rubble and a stone slate roof. It is two storeys high and has a long range with four first floor windows. The house has three bays of sash windows with glazing bars, which are topped with sandstone lintels and sills. There is a doorway located between the second and third bays, featuring a simple sandstone ashlar classical doorcase and a six-panel door beneath an oblong fanlight. The structure has end stacks and an additional stack situated between the first and second bays.
On the left side, the farm building includes a cart-shed opening and a shuttered window on the ground floor, along with a side-sliding sash window on the first floor. The farm building on the right has a shuttered window on the ground floor. Additionally, there is a single-storey thatched long-house with a hearth-passage plan that was rebuilt in 1789, following a Georgian layout with a central passage leading to the staircase, and it was slated for the first time at that time.
