Description
Stone House and the attached barn are two houses now combined into one, dating from the late 17th century, with later additions and alterations. The buildings are constructed of rubble with stone slate roofs and are two storeys high.
The central house, which is from the late 17th century, features three first-floor windows. The central doorway, now leading to an outhouse, has a chamfered quoined ashlar surround, a triangular soffit to the lintel, and a crude slab hoodmould, but currently has no door. To the right of this doorway is a part-glazed door from the 20th century, set under a slab lintel. The ground floor has two-light chamfered-mullion windows, some of which are blocked or lack a mullion, along with a fire-window to the right. An end stack is located to the right.
The house to the right is also from the late 17th century but has 19th-century alterations. It has three first-floor windows and a central gabled porch with a board door in an ashlar quoined surround featuring a moulded chamfer and a dripmould above. There are five-pane sash windows, with the one to the left of the porch having an ashlar surround. Fire-windows with quoined surrounds are present at both ends, and there are two blocked single-light windows on the first floor. The building has a shaped kneeler and an end stack to the right.
Inside the central house, there are stop-chamfered beams in the kitchen, while the living rooms of the house to the right feature 17th-century oak panelling. The barn to the left is taller and has a cart opening with an arch made of rubble voussoirs on skew-backed springers. It also has an ashlar stone surround doorway with impost jambs inserted into the arched opening, and above this doorway is a stone inscribed "M.A. 1823".
