Description
Campend is an earlier 19th-century, two-storey T-plan house with later additions, featuring a lower parallel gable at the rear and a single-storey outbuilding. The exterior is constructed from coursed sandstone ashlar, with dressed cills and long and short quoins. The house has coped skew gables with beaked skewputts and an eaves course.
On the northwest (principal) elevation, the house has a three-bay main section with a projecting piended porch on the ground floor to the right and a stone dormer on the first floor. There is also a projecting two-storey single bay gable to the right.
The northeast elevation displays an irregular M-gable with the ground floor partially concealed by a later stone lean-to, and a window in the right return. To the left, there is an adjoining single-storey ancillary building with a door and window to the rear.
The southeast (rear) elevation features a gable end with a later lean-to timber and glazed porch on the ground floor, which has a door in the left return. The entrance door is located within this porch. The first floor has a single bay with a blind gablehead, while the main house to the right has a single bay, and there is a projecting gabled extension adjoining to the right with a single bay on the right.
The southwest elevation is regularly fenestrated with two storeys and three bays, although there is a bipartite window on the ground floor to the right. Most windows are 6-pane timber sash and case. The roof is piended and covered with grey slate, featuring zinc ridging. The rainwater goods have been replaced with PVCu. The chimney stacks are moulded with chamfered arrises and plain short cans, linked by a bridge on a pedestal to the centre of the roof, while smaller rubble stacks with plain cans are located on the northeast gables.
The interior was not seen in 2001.
The boundary walls consist of coursed rubble with semi-circular copes for most of the boundary, while a random rubble wall on the southwest has piended stone copes and a later post box inset to the right.
The gatepiers are a pair of square ashlar pillars with projecting square neck copes and pyramidal caps. The gates are a pair of painted plain wrought-iron gates with pointed top bars and dog bars.
