Description
Keyford House is a house from the 17th century with later additions. It is built from cut and squared Ham stone, featuring ashlar dressings, and has plain clay tiles over stone slate base courses between coped gables. The house has two storeys with an attic and a south facade that consists of five bays. The second bay has a gabled projection, and there is a single-storey porch with a flat roof projecting from the fourth bay. The windows are hollow chamfered mullioned types with rectangular leaded panes: there are four-light windows in the first and second bays on the ground floor, a two-light window above the porch, and three-light windows elsewhere. The ground floor windows and the upper window in bay two have labels, while there is a plain rectangular stall window under a head mould in the attic of bay two. The front door is set within a plain cambered arch. There are extensions on the north side that date to 1924. The interior has not been seen.
