Little Gaer

Little Gaer is a one-and-a-half storey building that features a long range with former cowhouses at the west end. The house is constructed with large square panel timber framing and brick infill over a rubble base. The rubble gable end includes a stack with a moulded cap, indicating a raised roofline at the rear, and there is a large ridge stack at the west end. Each elevation has three eaves dormers, a central boarded door, and multi-light, small-paned casement windows. The cowhouse range is made of rubble stone and has boarded doors along with random small-paned casements. The roof is covered with stone tiles.

Inside, a partially exposed cruck couple at the west end features a notched lap-jointed collar and appears to be smoke blackened on both sides, lacking original infill. A later inserted chimney stack is built against it. The early 18th-century large open fireplace has a rough chamfered timber lintel and a modified bread oven, along with chamfered and scroll-stopped beams and a moulded wall post in the west room. The east end rooms have been modified in the late 18th century and again in recent years, with modern stairs added. The former cowhouses contain rough stud partition walls and trusses with paired raking braces, and one wall includes earlier square panel framing.
