High Blean

This is a farmhouse, cottage, and farm buildings combined under one roof, with two attached coach houses, dating to the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. The building is constructed of rubble with stone slate roofs. It has two storeys and nine first-floor openings in total. The coach houses are set at right angles to the main building at each end.

The farmhouse section is dated 1674. It has three first-floor openings and a projecting gabled, single-storey porch with a part-glazed door set within an ashlar surround. The surround incorporates applied Tuscan columns on the arris, and a pediment above, bearing a stone with a round-arched head inscribed "LTM 1674." On the ground floor, to the left is a pair of sash windows in architraves, divided by a flat-faced mullion; to the right are two lights of a chamfered mullion window and a sash window within an architrave with a dripmould. The first floor has three sash windows, and corbel brackets on the left. End stacks are present, the one on the right being particularly large.

To the left of the farmhouse is an outbuilding with two windows and steps leading to a boarded door. The left-hand coach house has quoins and a segmental-arched opening constructed of rubble voussoirs with a hood-mould; a boarded door is present in the right return. The cottage to the right has a central four-panel door. To the left of the door, there is a twelve-pane fixed-light window, and to the right is a four-pane casement window with a dripmould; sash windows are positioned above. A stack is located at the end on the right. A doorway has been blocked further to the right, with steps leading to a first-floor boarded door of an outbuilding to the right. The right-hand coach house has a gable facing the road and a boarded door in its left return. The building was the subject of reports 908 and 909 by the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Vernacular Buildings Study Group.
