Description

This is a two-storey farmhouse built in rubble stone with a slate roof and stone end stacks. It features a four-window range with cambered-headed windows that have stone voussoirs and stone sills. The lower openings have recessed voussoirs and raised keystones. The original sash windows have all been replaced with plastic. At the rear, there is an outshut.

To the right of the farmhouse is a lower service range that includes an end stack, a door to the left, and a window on each floor to the right, all with stone voussoirs. Beyond this, at a lower level due to the slope of the ground, is a late 19th-century lofted outbuilding that has four brick-headed doors and one small loft window.

Inside the house, there is a massive stone arched kitchen fireplace. Attached at the left end of the house, at right angles, is a late 19th-century lofted cartshed. This structure features a broad yellow-brick elliptical-arched cart entry, a door, and a window, all with yellow-brick heads, along with a small loft window above. There are stone outside steps on the end wall leading to a loft door, which has dove holes in the gable.

The house is enclosed by a rubble forecourt wall that has low wire railings and a gate situated between split stone gate piers.
