Description

Early 19th century farmhouse with ancillary buildings. It is a 2-storey, 3-bay rectangular farmhouse accompanied by 2 single-storey wings and a cartshed and granary to the rear. The farmhouse is built of pink, yellow, and grey tooled sandstone rubble with broached dressings, featuring projecting cills and long and short quoins.

The south-east elevation is nearly symmetrical, with a centred architraved doorway containing a small-pane glazed timber door and a letterbox fanlight, above a relieving arch. Windows are placed in the flanking bays on the ground floor, with a relieving arch above the bay to the right. Regular fenestration is present on the first floor. Two single-storey, 2-bay wings extend from the farmhouse on either side: the wing to the right has a slate roof with a lead ridge, while the wing to the left has a red pantiled roof with a terracotta ridge. A gable of the cartshed and granary is visible on the far left.

The north-east elevation is largely obscured by an advanced single-storey, 2-bay wing on the ground floor, with a window off-centre to the right of the gabled bay to the left, and a window in the bay to the right. A curved angle is found on the outer left.

The north-west elevation is asymmetrical, with three bays. A window is positioned in the bay to the right on the ground floor, alongside a lean-to addition to the left, which incorporates a timber door flanked by a 2-pane window. A small window is located on the right return. Windows are present in the centre and left bays of the first floor, with a small window off-centre to the left of the right bay. A blank gabled bay is attached to the wing on the left, and two windows are set into the bay to the right. The cartshed and granary project from the outer right.

The south-west elevation's ground floor is hidden by a wing; the first floor is blank.

The windows are predominantly 12-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is grey slate with a lead ridge. Coped stone skews are present, alongside coped, stugged sandstone gablehead stacks with octagonal and circular cans. A harled, shouldered gablehead stack is located on the right wing.

The interior was not inspected in 1998.

The 2-storey, 3-bay cartshed and granary is attached to the southwest side of the farmhouse, constructed of squared and snecked tooled sandstone with droved dressings. It has segmental-arched cart arches with chamfered reveals in each ground floor bay, and regular fenestration with boarded timber panels surmounted by a small-pane glazed strip to the first floor openings. It has a pantiled roof with a terracotta ridge, with a skew missing.

Random rubble boundary walls with rubble coping are located to the south-east of the farm.
