Greyhound House Stable and Barn with Byre Extension

Greyhound House is a farmhouse that includes a stable and barn with a byre extension, originally a public house in the 20th century and now a private residence. The building is dated and inscribed on an internal doorway quoin as A.D. 1707, with an inscription on a reused stable lintel reading A. & I.D. 1711, and the rear extension is dated and inscribed on a window lintel as I.D. 1732. The structure features roughcast walls on a chamfered plinth, V-jointed quoins, and an eaves cornice on the house. It has a graduated greenslate roof with coped gables and kneelers, along with roughcast chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high, consisting of three bays with a rear two-bay extension, a single-bay stable on the right, and a barn with a right-angled byre on the left, all under a common roof. The house has sash windows in original painted stone surrounds, while the stable features a doorway with an inscribed Tudor-arched lintel. The barn includes a cross-passage doorway with a stone surround, above which is part of an earlier shaped and carved lintel. There are large plank doors in a flat-headed cart entrance and a plank door in a stone surround in the byre. The interior retains original features, including early 18th-century stone-surround doorways, but could not be closely examined during the survey.
