Description
Carrholme is a house dated 1669, with later alterations from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. The building features rendered rubble walls, a porch made of rendered dressed stone, painted stone dressings, and a stone slate roof. It has a lobby entry plan and stands two storeys tall with five bays.
The central gabled porch has a late 18th-century window on the ground floor with a moulded surround and a nine-pane fixed light. The eaves are adorned with mid-19th-century decorated bargeboards. The entrance on the right side has a moulded surround and a segmental pointed head with a hoodmould, leading to a plank door. Above the entrance is a datestone inscribed with "T I C" (for Thomas and Jane Carr).
On the upper floor, there is a two-light chamfered mullioned window, along with early 20th-century fixed lights. To the left of the porch, the ground floor features three and four-light ovolo mullioned windows with hoodmoulds, as well as casements and fixed lights. The upper floor has a large window on the left with 20th-century casements and a two-light flat-faced mullioned window to the right, along with a late 20th-century sash window with six panes and an eight-pane fixed light.
To the right of the porch, the ground floor has two two-light flat-faced mullioned windows with moulded surrounds, both fitted with sashes. The upper floor contains two similar three-light flat-faced mullioned windows with moulded surrounds, featuring six-pane fixed lights and two-pane casements. A painted sundial with an iron gnomon is located between the windows. The house has gable end and right-of-centre ridge stacks, as well as a stack on the gable end of the porch.
Inside, there is an inglenook fireplace with a basket arch, a round-headed entrance to the right, and a flat-headed entrance to the left. The left-hand range features a queen post truss.
