Turners Farmhouse And Attached Barn

This is a late 17th or early 18th century farmhouse with an attached barn, though a datestone indicates 1874. The farmhouse is built of stone rubble, with the front face roughcast and ashlar dressings. It has a slate roof. It is two storeys high, with two bays, and a central entrance plan linked to the barn on the left. The front gable has coping, kneelers, and a ball finial on the left end. The windows have ashlar surrounds and 2-light casements, with a 3-light casement on the ground floor of the second bay. The central entrance has an ashlar surround and a half-glazed door, with a datestone above featuring canted upper angles and two blank escutcheons. A cross-axial stack, likely added later, and a gable-end stack are present. The barn has a segmental-headed entrance, a smaller entrance to the right, and a window to the left. The left return side has small openings, and the rear has a 2-light double-chamfered mullioned window (lacking a mullion) to the ground floor of the first bay, a window to the second bay in a former entrance, with a later entrance inserted between them. Two windows are on the first floor, the one in the second bay being a later addition. A 20th century lean-to outshut was once attached to the barn, with a blocked entrance at the left end. The barn interior contains three collar and tie beam trusses.
