Description

A large L-shaped farmhouse in quasi-rubble masonry, painted. The downslope range at left is the older part, partly three storey, partly two storey, with walls of about 1 m thickness. Large lateral chimney at left, to the rear of which is a low lean-to part covering a doorway. Front windows vertically aligned. The eaves of the main range have been raised at front and at right.

The later wing added to the right is a symmetrically fronted three-window range with central entrance. Small modern single-storey annex at right. Slate roofs, tile ridge, brickwork stacks.

Renewed windows, some in upvc, in original openings. Semi-glazed main door with small rain hood.

The older downslope range has three storeys at front with the ground floor 1 m lower than that of the part to its rear; the partition separating the three-storey from the two-storey part is timber-framed. In the rear wall there is a very large fireplace (now walled up, but sketched by North), and to the right an originally external C15 pointed doorway with segmental rear-arch, now containing a door into the later wing of the house. Staircase at left. The chamber floor has a chamfered main beam and chamfered and stopped common joints. Utilitarian roof carpentry, so far as visible, with windbracing.

Interior of the later wing not inspected.
