Barland

Barland is a house with origins dating back to the 17th century, which was remodeled and extended in 1857. It is two storeys high with attics and has an L-shaped plan, featuring two parallel ranges running northwest to southeast. The exterior is roughcast, with a combination of slate and tile roofs. The older range has a hipped end, plain brick stacks, gabled eaves dormers, and an open timber bellcote topped with a domed leaded cap and weathervane. The windows include small-paned cross-pattern casements to the left of the centre, a twelve-pane sash and first-floor half-sashes in the central section, and sliding sashes in the dormers. There is an enclosed rendered porch with a pointed arch entry.

The ranges added in 1857 feature deep-set boxed eaves and wide verges with carved brackets. Notably, three distinctive triple-shafted stacks are present. The ground floor openings include twelve-pane sashes with dropped cills and two French doors with overlights. A weathered armorial plaque displaying the date of 1857 is located on the south gable.

Attached to the north end of the house are outbuildings that include 19th-century service rooms and stables. These are single-storey and L-shaped, constructed of coursed rubble with slate roofs, boarded doors, and small-paned windows.

The interior, which is somewhat undistinguished, features four-panel doors, ceiling cornices, high moulded skirting, and some exposed beams in the service area. The dog-leg stairs include a scroll newel, a curtail step, an open string with template tread brackets, a ramped handrail, and heavy stick balusters.
