Description
Nos 3 and 5 is a farmhouse that has been converted into two cottages. It dates back to the 16th century and has been enlarged over time, with a late 20th-century addition. The building is constructed of red sandstone random rubble and features a thatched roof. There are external stone stacks with brick caps at the gable ends and on the crosswing gable end to the left, as well as another stack to the left of the cross passage. The layout is L-shaped, consisting of three cells and a cross passage with a crosswing on the left. The structure is one and a half storeys high, with irregularly placed 19th and 20th-century casement windows. There is a small glazed opening in the ground floor right of the crosswing, an eyebrow dormer, and another small glazed opening below the eaves to the left of a plank door, while the rest of the facade is unlit. To the left, there is a single-storey lean-to addition in the re-entrant angle, and the left return has three bays with a single-storey porch addition roofed with asbestos slate. Inside No 5, which was the only part viewed, there is a six-panel moulded compartment ceiling to the left of the cross passage, a spade stop to the chamfered lintel of the open fireplace with chamfered stone jambs, and chamfered beams with scroll stops.
