Description

Sub-medieval storeyed house of local rubble construction with slate roof; C19 yellow sandstone window surrounds, formerly 3-light mullioned windows, the mullions now missing. Large projecting, gabled end chimney to the R, with corbelling-out at the top; small C19 stacks with moulded capping to this and opposite gable end. Three-bay main front with central, single-storey gabled porch; this has a window to the front with 2-pane modern glazing, and a glazed modern door to the R return. Similar windows to both floors. The rear elevation has a single-storey C19 wash/brewhouse addition to the L, forming an L-plan with the primary block, and a large modern extruded addition to the R. Modern windows throughout, including an arched one to the centre of the main block.

Stopped-chamfered ceiling beams to the former hall and parlour, the hall ceiling framed in three ways; the joists are obscured with modern plasterboard but are retained; the main and subsidiary beams have long broach stops. Wide fireplace in the hall, of inglenook type with arched bressummer (the arching later). The original roof trusses are said to survive.
