Middle Farmhouse And Attached Outbuilding

Middle Farmhouse and attached outbuilding is a farmhouse dating to the late 18th century and the early to mid-19th century. It is constructed of squared coursed limestone with Collyweston slate and 20th-century plain-tile roofs. The original plan was likely three units. The front has two storeys and a three-window front of 20th-century casements with glazing bars, set in original openings and beneath gauged stone heads. A sash window with glazing bars is located on the ground floor to the right, also under a similar head. The front door is a six-panelled, part-glazed design with a stone gabled porch to the left of centre. There are three dormers in the roof. Ashlar stacks are located at the ridge and ends. An attached, two-storey stable, with a hayloft now used as an outbuilding, was built in the mid-19th century. A central first-floor doorway on the outbuilding has a flight of stone steps leading up to it. Two projecting wings to the rear, dating from the late 18th to mid-19th century, are two storeys high, with two casement openings at the first floor under wooden lintels. Inside the house, there’s an early 19th-century staircase with a stick balustrade. A room to the left of the entrance has an open fireplace with a bressumer. The room to the right was remodelled in the early 19th century, featuring a marble fireplace and arch-head niches.
