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.

The house is located at the center of the northern range and is two stories tall with three windows, built from snecked masonry. It has an advanced gablet at the center that displays an inset rampant lion. There is a sill band that steps up beneath the windows, and the building has stressed quoins. The windows are modern four-pane designs. A stone staircase leads up from the road to the house. The agricultural buildings on either side of the house have plain three-window rubble elevations with stone lintels and Victorian sash windows. There is a low forecourt wall.

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. There is a taller implement shed at the right angle to the eastern end, which is 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. Additionally, there is a two-story cartshed with a granary above it, positioned at a right angle to the western end. This structure has a dormer doorway to the right, three arched cart entries, and a loft door under a hood on the gable end.

In the center of the yard, there are two long rectangular manure stores. These have stone bases and an open upper timberwork structure topped with a curved corrugated iron roof, which was formerly gabled.

The southern range features a two-story chaff house and engine room at its center. It has a fleche-like ventilator and a gablet over the loading door, which is flanked by loft windows and has a sill band. The central doorway is cambered and flanked by windows. 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 to 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 adjoin the eastern and western ends at right angles, open to the outside of the yard, and retain their original doors, windows, and fittings.
