Description
This is an early 18th-century farmhouse with barns adjoining, altered in the 19th century. The farmhouse is built with painted incised stucco over sandstone rubble walls, featuring V-jointed quoins. It has a graduated greenslate roof with coped gables and chimney stacks of banded red sandstone. The barns are of mixed sandstone rubble, with roofs of both greenslate and red sandstone slate. The overall layout forms a U-shape.
The farmhouse is two storeys high with two bays. The central doorway is framed by a bolection architrave and cornice. There are three-light flat-mullioned windows, with those on the left being two-light, set within 19th-century painted stone surrounds. The right-hand barn has 20th-century casement windows, positioned beneath slit vents. The left barn is partly domestic and features chamfered-surround windows from the 18th century in its gable wall. The return wall contains irregular casement windows in 19th-century painted stone surrounds.
The rear of the farmhouse includes an outshut with a small two-light stone-mullioned window, and another similar window where the mullion has been removed. The L-shaped barn has a central double plank door within a segmental arch, and a pent extension to the right. The right-angled extension has plank doors, loft openings, small openings and slit vents.
