Thwaite Nook

Thwaite Nook is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with 19th-century alterations. It features red sandstone rubble walls with flush quoins on a projecting plinth. The roof is made of Welsh slate and has a 19th-century brick chimney stack, along with a 20th-century stack to the right. The building is two storeys high and has four bays, with a single-storey, two-bay extension to the right. The extension has a 20th-century door that is set within a chamfered surround and topped with a 19th-century lintel. There are small 20th-century casement windows with glazing bars in painted stone surrounds, which are likely not original but are similar in size to the original windows and maintain the character of the building. Original fire windows are present on both floors to the right, framed in painted chamfered surrounds. The rear outshut has 20th-century windows. The extension may partly date from the 17th century but was rebuilt in the 19th century; it features a plank door to the right and a casement window in 19th-century stone surrounds.
