Description

Long single storey range with attic, constructed of whitewashed rubble stone under a slate roof. Large stone stack offset to L with brick cap. The C18 unit to the L is rendered with a brick end stack. To the R of the stone stack are two gabled slate-hung dormers with 4-pane horned sash windows. Similar sash to ground floor L with timber lintel. Entrance offset to R containing a door with arched ribs under a long timber lintel that continues R over a window opening with C20 casement. The L unit has a planked door to the R and late C20 window to the L, both with shaped hoodmoulds. Gabled dormer with late C20 glazing above, and small skylight to its R.

The N gable end has a weather-boarded gable containing a 4-pane sash, with lean-to below with slate roof. The S gable end also has a 4-pane sash, offset to the L to the upper storey. Lean-to garage below, entered from the front. To the rear is a C20 single-storey flat-roofed lean-to, with advanced porch to L. Rear roof pitch covered with corrugated iron; single flat-roofed dormer. To the L is a long single-storey rear wing of rubble stone with corrugated iron roof and brick end stack. C20 porch to S side and C20 glazing to windows. Red brick to gable end and single window to N side.

The entrance leads into the cross-passage which had a screens partition to the R. The sole-plate of this partition survives beneath the bar and a later partition has been inserted to the left of the entrance. The principal interest of the interior is the survival of the 3 cruck-couples, to the sides of the cross passage and at the L end next to the fireplace. The cruck blades of the central truss have been thinned below the tie beam. The large hall fireplace has stop-chamfered stone jambs and a timber bressummer with straight-stopped chamfer. A door to the R leads to the later unit. Single cross-beam to hall with narrow chamfer; flagstone floor. At the N end of the hall is a C19 straight staircase with a blocked doorway to its E. Box framing is retained to the rear (W) wall of the bar, but this is now an internal wall as a rear wing was added in the C19.
