Description
Greens South Farmhouse, along with its attached byres, stables, and cart shed, is a Grade II listed building dated 1731, with 19th-century additions. The structure is built of rubble with a stone slate roof. The farmhouse itself is two storeys high and has a double-depth plan with two bays. It features a central part-glazed four-panel door set in an ashlar surround, complete with impost jambs on plinths and a scar from a segmental pediment above.
To the left of the doorway, there are four-pane sash windows in ashlar surrounds with slightly chamfered lintels and sills, along with a chamfered fire window on the ground floor. To the right of the doorway, there are more four-pane sashes in plain ashlar surrounds. The roof is of two spans and has end stacks. The rear elevation displays two datestones: one inscribed "1731," which has been reset from the front range, and another reading "EAA 1839," marking the date of the added rear range. There is also a reset 18th-century window surround and a round-headed landing window in a stone surround from 1839.
The byre to the right is two storeys tall, featuring a ground-floor doorway with an ashlar surround and interrupted jambs beneath a slab canopy supported by shaped slab brackets. There is a pitching door on the first floor. The lower two-storey stable, which has a hay-loft above, projects forward to the right. The byre to the left is also two storeys high, with a 20th-century ground-floor window and a hayloft that includes a first-floor board pitching door, shaped kneeler, and ashlar coping to the left. A single-storey cart shed projects forward to the left, featuring a lintel with a roughly arched soffit and a two-light mullion window in the right return.
