Description

Two-storeys with attic, 3-window range. The house has an integral lean-to on E side and a gabled wing at rear. Random rubble with renewed slate roof. Two end stacks, of stone to the left, blue brick to the right. Three renewed dormers with 2-light casements. The house is double-fronted, the front faced with unusually large blocks of stone. In the first floor are three equally placed 9-pane windows under segmental heads. These are repeated on the ground floor either side of a centrally-placed door, which is under a timber lintel. The door is planked and has a glazed panel. Lean-to to left has, in the return elevation, renewed window under a timber lintel in the lower storey, and a lately inserted window under the wall plate. The gabled wing at the rear has an outshut under a catslide roof, and an end stack in stone. The lateral wall on the west side is roughcast and has 3-iron frame windows inserted mid C20. Contemporary with these is a shallow C20 2-storeyed outshut at rear of main range. Single-storeyed gabled projection on the W side is of rubble stone, with a planked door on the S side, and a blocked doorway on the N side.

Main range has a 2-unit plan with central stair hall. Two-flight stair with some treads replaced. The partition between the hall and room to right has a light timber frame. The room to left has a large fireplace, with replaced bressumer and C19 brick range, and 2 chamfered spine beams with exposed joists. The door beside the fireplace leads to a former pantry, which has a cobbled floor. The gabled wing at rear has a fireplace with random rubble jambs, a chamfered bressumer, and a bread oven with cast iron door made by the Coalbrookdale Company. All original internal doorways have ledged and battened doors.
