Description

This is a farmhouse, likely dating to the 17th or 18th century, with a later lean-to addition to the rear. The construction is a mix of timber framing with brick infill, rendered surfaces where the timber framing is exposed, and largely brick for the ground floor. A brick external gable stack is situated on the right-hand side. The windows are timber mullion and cast iron casements, with corrugated sheet roofing to the south section and slate to the north.

The front (east) elevation features three evenly spaced three-light windows on the first floor. The ground floor has windows in the outer bays; the left-hand window has been converted into a door and partially blocked. The central bay contains a doorway and a window to the right. This doorway is not in its original position and is sheltered by a small slate canopy supported on timber corbels. A further, inserted door has been placed between the central and right-hand bays. The south gable shows exposed timber framing, revealing a jacked roof line. The rear (west) elevation has a brick lean-to of partial length, with a surviving, but incomplete, roof of small slates. The rendered south end of the main house has a small ground-floor window. The north gable displays an external brick stack and a bread oven, with timber framing visible. There are two wide windows in the end of the lean-to.

The lobby entrance leads into a hall containing a large fireplace with a bressumer featuring unusual complex reed and flute moulding. The hall also has two stop-chamfered beams with plain joists, and a quarry tile floor. A dog-leg staircase is enclosed in the northwest corner. A door in the west wall leads to the lean-to. An offset door in a partition separates what was formerly a cold parlour or store, now a kitchen, which has a large fireplace in the gable wall. A single stop-chamfered beam and plain joists are supported on the west wall by a further beam resting on moulded brackets. Another door in the west wall opens onto the lean-to. To the left of the entrance is the former parlour, with two stop-chamfered beams and a later fireplace. A partition against the west wall divides a small store from the staircase to the first floor. There is a blocked window within the gable framing.

The first floor is divided into four bays, defined by queen post and collar strut roof trusses. The staircase from the hall leads directly into the north bay. A small fireplace and a blocked door are found in the centre of the truss above the hall. A door is located in the centre of the south truss, leading to the chimney stack bay above the hall. There is also a blocked ladder stair alongside the stack, and a further door leading to the room at the south parlour end. A small fireplace is present in the main stack, and stairs run along the west wall from the parlour. The interior of the lean-to is partially derelict, with a collapsed floor.
