Description
Roughly coursed boulder stones and slate rubble, with recent slate roof. End wall stacks, that to left corbelled out at first floor level. 2 storeys, 3 window range, with entrance towards centre. Steep voussoir arched head to doorway, which is flanked by 16-pane sash windows with flat lintels. The 3 upper windows are similar, and align with the lower openings. Cellar opening (formerly a doorway) cut by left hand window, has steep voussoir arched head, similar to that of main doorway.
The house originally had an inside cross-passage plan, and the opposed entrances of this survive, together with the heavy post and panel partition wall, now separating the living room from the stairway. The original layout had a large and a small room on each floor, placed alternatively. The present internal layout is in part the result of later changes, and especially the insertion of a central staircase (perhaps in the late C18). The fireplace in the present living room is probably a C18 insertion, the earlier fireplace in the W room has been blocked, and the original staircase alongside it largely removed. A 3-bay roof with arch-braced collar beam and cusped wind braces to one truss is recorded by RCAHM.
