Description

South View and the adjoining barn are a farmhouse and barn built in the early 18th century, with some alterations made in the early 19th century. The structure is made of dressed red sandstone and features a graduated greenslate roof with banded red sandstone chimney stacks. It is two storeys high and has two bays, with a former dairy on the right now forming a third bay, along with a lower right two-bay barn.

The front has an off-centre door set in a stone surround with a lintel that includes a blank inscription panel. There are sash windows with glazing bars, all framed in raised red sandstone surrounds from the 19th century. The barn has a central plank door beneath a wooden lintel and a small casement window on the left. The rear of the building retains original window surrounds, including one with a flat stone mullion. Inside, there is a beamed ceiling and an 18th-century stone fireplace.
