Description

Berryhill is a farmhouse dated 1877, featuring a two-storey, irregular plan. It is constructed of rubble with stugged ashlar quoins and smooth ashlar dressings, topped with a slate roof. The main house has 4-pane and plate glass sash and case windows with chamfered arrises, while the rear service elevations have multi-pane sash and case windows. The eaves are bracketted, with plain bargeboards and corniced stacks.

On the south elevation, there is a door and window in a single-storey porch at the center re-entrant angle, a bipartite window to the left, and two single windows on the first floor. The gable to the right features a full-height canted window that sweeps to a square at the gable head, adorned with a heraldic shield. The east elevation has two windows on both the ground and first floors. The west gable includes a window on the ground floor and a first-floor window in a lean-to on the left. The north elevation has an advanced gable at the center, with two lean-to additions at the right re-entrant angle, along with various doors and windows.

The interior has not been seen.

The steading is a large extended U-plan structure from the mid-19th century, incorporating earlier parts. It is built of rubble with some stugged ashlar dressings and a slate roof. The north side features a long threshing barn range, while the west side has a segmental-arch cart-shed and granary. The east side includes a four gable-ended range, which has a datestone from 1769 and incorporates a cattle court with two segmental arches and massive round-section piers, along with an adjoining twin-gabled range.

There are also cottages dated 1869 and 1905, which incorporate an earlier 19th-century cottage to the west. These are single-storey, rectangular-plan rows of cottages, constructed of rubble with slate roofs, featuring plate glass and 4-pane sash and case windows, and ridge stacks.
