Description
Penamen Ucha Farm is a model farmyard that features an enclosed courtyard and includes a house. The buildings are constructed from rubble masonry with rock-faced freestone dressings. The roofs are moderately pitched and covered with slate, featuring oversailing eaves, deep verges, and bargeboards.
At the center of the northern range is the house, which is two stories tall with three windows and made of snecked masonry. It has an advanced gablet at the center adorned with an inset rampant lion. There is a sill band that rises under the windows, and the corners of the house are emphasized with stressed quoins. The windows are modern four-pane designs. A stone staircase leads up from the road to the house. The agricultural buildings flanking the house have windows, and there is a plain three-window rubble elevation facing the yard with stone lintels and Victorian sash windows. A low forecourt wall is present.
To the right and left of the house are single-story agricultural ranges. The right range includes a dairy and an open-fronted shelter shed supported by stone piers. A taller implement shed is positioned at a right angle to the eastern end, also open-fronted with stone piers. The left range consists of a former carpentry shop, calf pens, and shelter sheds, featuring plank doors and slatted vent windows. There is a two-story cartshed with a granary above it at the western end, which has a dormer doorway to the right, three arched cart entries, and a loft door beneath a hood on the gable end.
In the center of the yard, there are two long rectangular manure stores with stone bases and an open upper timber structure topped with a curved corrugated iron roof, which was formerly gabled.
The southern range contains a two-story chaff house and engine room, featuring a fleche-like ventilator and a gablet above the loading door, which is flanked by loft windows. The central doorway is cambered and flanked by windows, with a sill band present. Storage barns step down to either side, with lean-tos at the front, ventilator grilles under the eaves, and dormer doorways at the rear. The single-story ranges on the left and right include stables on the right and a cowhouse on the left, both featuring ridge ventilators, plank doors, and slatted vent windows. Taller Dutch barns are positioned at right angles to the eastern and western ends, open to the outside of the yard, with original doors, windows, and fittings.
