Bridgend Farmhouse With Byre

Bridgend Farmhouse with Byre is an early 19th century single-storey building featuring a cruck-framed design. The structure includes a long range with a former T-plan farmhouse at the center, flanked by byres, and a small, nearly square detached outbuilding to the southwest. The exterior is made of rubble with coped skews, mostly covered by corrugated sheet metal roofing, and there is a gablehead stack on the extension.

The crucks are notable for their use of straight timbers jointed at the knee, with the cruck blades made from roughly square logs. In the house, the logs are devoid of bark, while the surfaces in the steading retain their bark. The collars are half checked to the main blades.

The farmhouse range is no longer occupied. It features a door at the center of the southeast elevation, flanked by windows, and has a projecting wing on the northwest elevation.

Inside, there are three sets of crucks in the main structure and an additional set in the T-plan extension. The interior includes a lathe and plaster canopy chimney with a light timber framework, and a plank and strap ceiling that may date from around 1900. A section of the range to the northeast is now roofless, with the crucks in poor condition or missing, and there are door openings on the southeast elevation.
