GV II

Small house with attached shop and barn, and stable to rear; now in two ownerships and all unoccupied at time of inspection (July 1994). Probably earlier C18, enlarged in late C18 or early C19. Roughly coursed mixed rubble with quoins, the house white-washed; stone slate roof. Linear plan on east-west axis, facing south, built below road level and at an acute angle to it: the house at the west end apparently one rectangular unit plus a small outshut to the rear, with a small 1-unit shop to the right and a longer barn continued to the right. EXTERIOR: the house, 2 low storeys and 2 windows, has a square-headed doorway to the right (protected by a C20 corrugated sheet pitched canopy), 2 windows to the left under a stone slate band, one window to the right, and 2 offset to the right at 1st floor (all 4-pane sashes with margin panes) and a large corbelled chimney at the left gable with a pitched slate cap. Facing onto higher ground to the right, the shop is at 1st-floor level, with a 20-pane fixed window, a square-headed doorway to the right with an old board door, and a tall ridge chimney at the junction with the house. The barn has a square-headed wagon doorway at the same level, close to the junction. Rear (to lower ground) has lean-to outshut to house; full-height lean-to behind shop containing fine (but damaged) C18 stable with 2 round-arched stalls with plastered walls, a shaped wooden partition and one surviving hayrack. INTERIOR of house not inspected, but stone flagged floors and inserted C19 wooden partition visible. HISTORICAL NOTE: the shop was formerly used by a tailor (who occupied the house).
