Church House

Church House is a house dating from the early 17th century, likely with earlier origins. It was remodeled and reduced in height in the 18th century and partially rebuilt around 1980. The building is constructed of roughly dressed sandstone that includes re-used stone, set on a sandstone rubble plinth, with tooled and hammered quoins and a pantile roof.

It is two stories high with a three-window front. The off-centre flat-topped, chamfered doorcase features roughly quoined jambs and contains a 20th-century glazed door beneath a chamfered, four-centred arch with broach-stopped jambs. The windows are sixteen-pane sashes with stone sills and heavy tooled lintels throughout, and the plinth is chamfered in some areas.

On the right side of the building, there is a massive four-stage external stack with chamfered offsets and rough quoins, along with a coped gable and kneeler to the left and a second stack located left of centre.

Inside, there is a large inglenook fireplace in the ground floor room to the right, featuring a huge Tudor-arched lintel carved from a single stone block. In the ground floor room to the left, 17th-century panelling has been reused to create the chimneypiece and the door.
