North Corner Farmhouse

North Corner Farmhouse is a house built in 1703, with alterations from the late 18th and early 19th centuries and a later 19th-century addition. It is constructed of coursed squared gritstone with a graduated stone slate roof. The house has a 2-storey, 2-bay end-lobby-entry plan, with an added bay to the left and a rear outshut. Quoins are present. The main range has a glazed door in a 19th-century single-storey porch to the left; the lintel, which has been repositioned, features an ogee moulding and the inscription 'I M B' and the date 1703. The windows on the ground floor are paired, with four panes in plain stone surrounds, in the centre and to the right; the first-floor windows are two 3-light recessed-chamfered mullioned windows. There are hollow-moulded kneelers, ashlar gable copings, and corniced end stacks. The added bay to the left has a square window with a plain stone surround to each floor. On the right return, a 2-light recessed-chamfered mullioned window is visible on the ground floor. The rear elevation has a small square window to the ground floor on the left, and a 4-light recessed-chamfered mullioned window under the eaves above. The interior was not inspected but the owner reports the presence of curved cruck-type timbers, similar to those in the nearby barn. A gateway attached to the rear right has a lintel inscribed 'P I H 1768’, and this lintel, dating from 1768, may also represent the date of alterations to the ground-floor window.
