Description

Linear range aligned NE to SW comprising 2-storey farmhouse with agricultural range of cartshed, barn and attached lean-to to R (SW) end. The house is a 3-window range with a gabled porch towards the centre of the range.

The house is built of mortared rubble masonry with large stones as quoins and lintels. Slate roof with stone copings at NE end on rough stone kneelers; gable stacks with dripstones and capping. The windows are modern casements, a large 3-pane window to the L of the porch with a 2-pane light set under the eaves above, there is a similar 1st floor window offset to the R of the porch and to far right there are 4-pane lights, the 1st floor window in a gabled dormer which breaks the eaves line. To the rear of the house there is a rendered brick built addition with modern door and windows; 2 rooflights in the roof pitch above.

The attached lofted cartshed is of roughly coursed rubble including some large boulders; slate roof with stone coping. The principal entrance has a wide cartbay entrance with 2 loft windows set under the eaves above. To the rear there is a smaller doorway with ventilation slit to the R and pitching hole under the eaves to the L. The building to the R (SW) end has been re-roofed with profiled sheeting and has access via the open side to the rear; at the far SW end is a single pitched roof with a partially blocked doorway in the SW wall.

The house retains its original cross passage plan, with the larger hall to one side, and former heated parlour to the other. The hall originally had a lateral fireplace, but this was replaced by a gable end fireplace with winding stair alongside: both survive.
