Old Stable Block and Bodidris Cottage to South-west of Bodidris

This is a late 16th-century hall-house with a lateral chimney, significantly altered by a partial conversion to stables. Originally, the house likely featured a cross-passage plan, incorporating a storeyed entrance porch and a first-floor parlour at the upper end. The building is constructed from rubble stone with a gabled slate roof, and window dressings consist of individual stone blocks.

The east-facing garden elevation is notable for an elegant cupola-style stone clock tower. The clock dials face east and west, with narrow vertical embrasures to the north and south. The tower has an incurving pyramidal roof and a weathervane. The long, two-storey front features six small 16th-century window openings on the upper floor, where original mullions have been replaced with 19th and 20th-century glazing. The ground floor displays a late 19th-century studded door with a four-pane overlight, a pair of two-pane casements, another 19th-century studded door with a three-pane overlight, a further casement pair, a boarded door with an overlight, and a final casement. A single-storey gabled block projects to the east on the right side.

The west elevation, originally forming the front of the 16th-century house, overlooks a rear courtyard. A two-storey porch, offset to the left, has prominent stone quoins and a brick gable coping with a stone finial, and a single-light window on the first floor. The original porch doorway was replaced in the 19th century with an opening featuring a cambered brick arch and a plain boarded door with a rectangular overlight, with a single light window to the right. The south wall of the porch contains a 16th-century two-light mullion window above and a one-light window below. To the left of the porch, the main wall of the house has a one-light window and a 20th-century window on the first floor. On the ground floor, there is a blocked cyclopean-type doorway to the left, followed by a 19th-century three-light wooden mullion and transom window with a substantial stone lintel. To the right of the porch, the first floor has two three-light windows, then a projecting lateral chimney with a two-light stone mullion to its right; the ground floor mirrors this with a 19th-century doorway with a boarded door, a four-pane overlight, and a cambered brick arch, followed by a 19th-century sash window with large plate-glass panes, and a small vertical three-light window to the left of the stack. The impressive south gable-end is crowned by an ornamental finial depicting a bearded human face. The first-floor two-light window has a stone lintel with a horizontal scratch moulding, and an eroded inscription 'ANO DOMIE 1581'. The jambs are rounded at the angles. The ground floor features a blocked cyclopean-type doorway with a Tudor-shaped stone head, infilled with a pair of two-pane casements. The north gable-end has a similar blocked cyclopean doorway in the lower wall, visible from a nearby shelter shed.

Bodidris Cottage was not accessible during the inspection. An adjoining ground-floor room displays chamfered ceiling beams and joists with straight cut stops. An upper chamber to the north contains a 16th-century fireplace with monolithic jambs and shaped corbels supporting a projecting stone bressumer, along with a timber-framed partition featuring a Tudor-arched doorway. The roof features a collar and tie-beam truss with king and queen posts below, and V-struts above the collar.
