Moss Farm And Moss Cottage

Moss Farm and Moss Cottage is a farmhouse that has been converted into two dwellings. It likely dates from the early 18th century and underwent alterations in the 19th century, with further renovations around 1980. The building is constructed from mixed random rubble, featuring quoins, with the west gable being roughcast. It has a stone slate roof, while the rear wing is covered with slate.

The structure is L-shaped, consisting of a single-depth, two-unit main range oriented east-west, with a rear wing attached to the second unit. The exterior is two storeys high and has five windows. A recent lean-to porch is positioned slightly to the right of the center, with doorways on both sides. To the left of the porch, there are two windows with old sandstone lintels, and to the right, two windows with bluestone lintels. All these windows are now 4-pane sashes, replacing the original casements. The first floor features five similar windows with renewed lintels. There is a gable chimney on the left and a square chimney on wooden corbels at the right gable. The right-hand gable wall has a small window towards the rear at ground level. The rear wing, which is slightly set back, includes a doorway at the junction with the main range, chamfered flush mullion windows with three and two lights at ground level, a two-light casement on the first floor, a gable chimney, and two 20th-century windows on each floor of the gable wall.

Inside the right-hand portion, now known as Moss Farm, there is a notable mid-18th century stone fireplace with a moulded surround and a corbelled lintel featuring a fan-pattern false keystone. To the left of the fireplace is an altered bread oven, and to the right is a square spice cupboard with a moulded surround and a fielded panel door on butterfly hinges. On the first floor, the inner side of the gable chimney has wooden corbels.
