Description
Kings Farmhouse and attached barn dates primarily from the 17th and 18th centuries, with later alterations. The farmhouse is constructed of ashlar and rubblestone, with a graduated stone slate roof. It is two storeys high and has a scattered pattern of windows. A board door is set in a chamfered surround to the right of the left-hand window, which has 20th-century glazing. To the right of the door is a two-light casement within a chamfered doorcase. Further to the right are a window with 20th-century glazing, followed by a three-light chamfered mullioned window. A two-light casement window sits to the right of this, and a half-glazed 20th-century door is on the left side. The first floor has windows in plain stone surrounds; three windows to the left have two-light casements, and two to the right have six-pane fixed glazing. The central and right-hand surrounds are chamfered. End stacks are present, along with one on the ridge.
The attached barn projects to the right of the farmhouse. It features a central board wagon door, set back within a quoined surround featuring a segmental arched lintel with a keystone. To the left of this is a board door in a chamfered surround. The interior of the barn contains original roof trusses, which are truncated king-post trusses with a side strut on one side and an arched brace on the other. The barn represents an early example of a common plan type in Wharfedale, which comprises a wagon door set back with a hay loft above, and a space in front of the doors functioning as a cart-shed.
