Secondary House at Plas Heaton Farm

Storeyed house of limestone rubble construction with remains of limewash to the rear; medium-pitched slate roof with kneelered crow-stepped gables to either end, having slate copings and ball finials (formerly) to both ends. Squat (reduced) chimney to the L gable with later, probably early C19 semi-circular oven projection below, the latter slated. The farmyard-facing side has 2 entrances with boarded doors, with a reduced former entrance between, now a 3-light modern window; small light to the R of this, essentially primary, though with some alteration. To the R is a blocked opening and a modern steel-framed window beyond. Two C20 gabled dormers to the attic floor, with plain wooden casement windows; boarded loading bay to the R with small, reduced primary light beyond, tucked under the eaves.

The rear side retains evidence for all of its original openings. The upper floor has a blocked window to the L and a (partly-reduced) 3-light wooden mullioned window to the R of centre. The ground floor has 3 blocked-up windows, each formerly with 3 mullions, with expressed timber lintels and pegged frames. To the far R is a partly-blocked 5-light mullioned and transomed wooden window with similar frame and lintel; off-set mullions. Boarded entrance to the S gable end with a flight of stone steps leading to a first-floor boarded entrance in pegged frame; C19 brick and rubble lean-to flush with the front.

Large fireplace with flat, stopped-chamfered bressummer to the L (N) ground floor room, with stopped-chamfered ceiling beams and an old ladder stair to the L of the breast. Mortising evidence to a lateral beam shows this to have been a former post-and-panel partition; C20 brick wall immediately beyond. The remainder of the ground floor has its ceiling beams obscured; modern brick supporting pillar to the central room. Four-bay part-open roof with original pegged collar and raking strut trusses; former partition truss visible at the N end.
