Description
Pantycolly, a farmhouse dating from the 18th century, is constructed of whitewashed rubble stone and features an imitation slate roof with a brick stack at the right end, while the left stack has been removed. The building is two stories high and has a two-window range that is offset to the left. It includes 6-pane windows with brick sills, and the lower windows have stone voussoirs above them. The glazing is from the 20th century and features top-hung top-lights. The base of a cruck truss is visible in the wall between the windows, and the right end wall has an external chimney breast. The left end shows evidence of an earlier, steeper roof pitch.
Attached to the right of the farmhouse is a byre with a wing that extends at right angles. The byre has corrugated iron roofs and a door on the extreme left that provides access to an end wall door into the house. The wing projects outwards and contains a door and a cross-window in its side and end walls, along with a large bulge of masonry at ground floor level, which may have been an oven, and a blocked loft entry. There is one window in the rear wall of the byre, which has two doors and a loft light in the end gable.
The rear of the house features a two-window range with 6-pane windows. The rear of the byre has a straight joint with the house, a pair of casement windows with a timber lintel, a 20th-century window, and a narrow window.
The main house has an end-entry and a two-room plan. There is a fireplace on the ground floor to the south, a 19th-century staircase, and boarded partitions leading to the first floor. The loft reveals a central 15th-century decorated cruck truss with a cambered collar and raked struts, which are cusped to form a quatrefoil and two trefoils, similar to the porch of Crickadarn church.
In the upper end of the byre, which now serves as the entry to the house, there are two large chamfered beams and square joists, along with a two-bay triple-purlin roof where a collar truss is visible, while the next to the byre is boarded over. The wing at right angles features two very low beams, one located halfway and another at the end, along with two trusses that have thin collars. The byre is separated by a brick wall that contains two massive beams, a timber-framed partition above the first beam, and a thin truss with a pegged collar over the second beam, with a third beam added.
