Farmhouse, now house. Probably mid C18, but perhaps incorporating some earlier fabric; altered. Mixed random rubble with quoins, the front white-washed, graduated slate roof. Double-depth double-fronted plan plus lean-to dairy to rear of right-hand half and lean-to peat-house attached to right-hand gable wall. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys and attic, 2 windows, almost symmetrical; with a stone-slate band over the ground floor (interrupted by the porch). The ground floor has a low but broad gabled porch (added) with a square-headed open doorway offset left, a slate drip-band over this, side-benches and an inner doorway with C19 panelled door. Each floor has 2 almost square flat-arched sashed windows, those to the left 8-paned (and the right-hand jamb of that at ground floor overlapped by the porch) and those to the right 6-paned, all with rubble voussoirs. The roof has gable chimneys and gable copings (without kneelers). The left gable wall has through-stones on 2 levels, a stone-slate band at eaves level and a C20 porch near the rear corner; the right-hand gable wall has a square attic window blocked with stone slate. The rear has 2 altered windows to the rear left room, a low stair-window in the centre and a small window below this, and two 4-pane tilting casements at 1st floor; large part-sunk lean-to dairy with corrugated sheet roof. INTERIOR: front right room has axial beam and small C18 built-in cupboard with shouldered fielded panel; left front room has fielded plank partition and 2 lateral beams with small chamfer; rear right room has damaged court-cupboard dated 1596 (probably ex situ); kitchen in rear left room has remains of bread oven.
