Carr End Farmhouse And Attached Carriage Shed

Carr End Farmhouse and the attached carriage shed are a house and carriage shed dating from the early 19th century, which incorporate remains of a 17th-century building. There is a later 19th-century extension and 20th-century modernisation. The front is made of herringbone-tooled sandstone, while the sides are squared sandstone, and both have pantile roofs. The building is L-shaped in plan and is two stories tall with a three-window front, alongside a one-story carriage shed on the right.

The house features a part-glazed, six-panel door beneath a blocked divided overlight. There is a four-pane sash window above the door and 20-pane sashes elsewhere, all with plain stone sills. All openings have tooled lintels, and the gables are coped with shaped kneelers. There are end stacks on the building. The carriage shed has a four-panel door with an overlight and a bordered, tooled lintel, as well as a coped gable and shaped kneeler at the right end.

On the rear of the house, there is a chamfered window opening with a four-pane sash at the left end. The left return features a two-story, one-window wing with an extension on the left. There is a 20th-century door in the original opening of the wing, with a shuttered window to the right and a 16-pane sash window above. All openings in this section have tooled lintels, including one on the first floor with a keyblock. The left side has a coped gable and shaped kneeler. The rear wall of the house has a chamfered window opening with a two-pane fixed light.

On the right return, the attic of the house contains a tiny hung sash window in a chamfered surround. In the carriage shed, there is an elliptical opening with a keyed arch made of tooled, radiating voussoirs, closed by double board doors on strap hinges. Above this is a pitching window beneath a semicircular keyed arch, which is closed by a board shutter on strap hinges. The extension to the rear wing is not of special interest.
