Description

The C19 house is of 2-storeys, constructed of rubble under a hipped slate roof; centralised plan with fine twin central stacks with moulded capping and weather-coursing. Gabled porch to S face with boarded door to E and arched window with label facing S. Modern flanking windows and further windows to the sides (one to each floor), that to the ground floor E blocked. 3 further windows to first-floor S, again with modern glazing. Boarded entrance to W side of N face at junction with primary wing; weather-coursing at their intersection.

The early block is a low building of rubble on rock foundations with a tall, old slate roof. Modern windows to W and E sides; External stepped access to N gable end, leading to an upper boarded door. To the R of this a wide, open cart entrance with exposed, re-used timber lintel.

The primary block is of three bays with full cruck trusses with pegged cruck spurs and a tie beam to the northern-most one; this with evidence for a former partition beneath, implying a former service bay in this position. Later roughly-scantled ceiling beams and a C19 rubble dividing wall through the centre of bay 2. Blocked primary windows to E and W expressed within, that to the W with timber lintel. C19 Washboiler with squat chimney expressed externally at the NE corner; old stone-flagged floor.
