Description
West End Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early to late 18th century. It is constructed of rubble, with some roughcast, and features a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys.
On the north elevation, which is roughcast, there are two bays. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door framed by an architrave with a pulvinated frieze and cornice. The windows are sash types with glazing bars set beneath deep stone lintels. The right side of the facade is blank but has blocked openings.
The south elevation is made of rubble and has six first-floor windows. In the second bay, there is a board door beneath the lintel of a two-light mullion window. To the left, there is a two-light double-chamfered mullion window. The third bay features a three-light casement window, while the fourth bay has a blocked doorway. Bays five and six contain two-light double-chamfered mullion windows. The first floor includes a two-light double-chamfered mullion window, a two-light casement window, a two-light 20th-century casement window, a single-light double-chamfered window, a two-light mullioned window, and a two-light window without a mullion.
The farmhouse has shaped kneelers and ashlar copings, with stacks located between bays two and three and at the right end. Nearby, in the garden wall, there is a lintel inscribed with "I S 1702".
