Description
Cloudin, Vaila is a farm building dated 1894, featuring a nearly symmetrical layout. It consists of a two-storey farmhouse with single-storey outbuildings on either side, arranged in a Palladian style that encloses a courtyard to the south. The walls are made of pointed rubble with concrete dressings and details. The windows have projecting cills and the gables are crowstepped, with brackets supporting the house.
The farmhouse has a two-bay design at the center, with a projecting two-storey gabled porch that breaks the eaves on the left side. This porch features a vertically boarded timber door with a datestone and a margined window above it. On the right side, there is a margined bipartite window with plate glass timber sash and case glazing at ground level. The harled wall extends to the outbuildings on both sides, and there is a modern rubble lean-to built in 1996 at the re-entrant angle on the left. The south gables have single windows, and there are ventilator slits on the courtyard elevations, with a variety of openings on the outer elevations.
The roofs are covered with purple grey slate, and the farmhouse has a harled cruciform plan ridge stack that is coped and features circular cans. The courtyard is enclosed by a harled rubble wall, with a central gateway flanked by square piers topped with pyramidal caps.
