Description
This is an early 18th-century farmhouse with attached outbuildings, built under a single roof. The farmhouse is constructed from rubble stone with a stone slate roof. It has a T-shaped plan and two storeys. The central section of the house features coursed rubble and two first-floor windows. There are rough quoins on the left side, and a central part-glazed wooden door. The windows are mullioned, with ashlar surrounds and dripstones: three-light windows on the ground floor and two-light windows above. A blocked fire window is visible on the ground floor to the left. Chimneys are located at each end, with the one on the right being a 20th-century rebuilding. To the right of the farmhouse is an outbuilding characterised by rough quoins and stone steps leading to a first-floor wooden door, alongside a ground-floor wooden door leading to a fuel store. A further outbuilding is located to the left, also with rough quoins and two wooden doors leading to ground-floor stables and two shuttered openings on the first floor. At the rear of the house, a later projecting gabled two-storey range has been added, featuring quoins, a two-light window on the ground floor, a four-pane sash window on the first floor, and a wooden door in an ashlar surround on the return.
