Cilciffeth

This is a farmhouse, dating back to the 17th century, with later additions. It is constructed of whitewashed rubble stone with asbestos-sheet roofs, close-eaved on the main range. The house is L-shaped. The front of the main range has painted brick end-wall stacks, a smaller one to the left and a larger one to the right, along with a smaller wall-face chimney to the right of centre. A lean-to stone porch provides access to the front door, which was unblocked in 2001, revealing a formerly timber-lintelled opening. To the left of the porch, there is a narrow eight-pane window on each floor, and a larger eight-pane sash to the far left. To the right of the porch, a small twelve-pane sash sits above a narrow eight-pane sash. Both windows have rough slate sills. The right end wall shows evidence of a demolished range, with blocked doors on both floors. The left end wall has a large four-pane sash window on the first floor, and a smaller four-pane sash below. One cornerstone is a reused carved stone, possibly from a chimney-piece dating to around 1600, featuring fluting.

A 19th-century rear wing is attached, constructed of stucco, and is two storeys high with a two-window front and a left-end stack. It has 20th-century replacement windows and a 19th-century front door with an overlight on the ground floor right. The stuccoed end wall has tooled stone sills. The rear wall of rubble stone features a long, pointed stair light to the first floor, with a brick head, and windows on each floor to the right, the upper one blank and the lower one containing a 20th-century window. A buttress is located to the extreme left.

The original house has a three-room plan with a corridor along the rear wall. The end room contains a 20th-century Gothic window and two 17th-century beams. A blocked door to the left of the fireplace led to a demolished section. The next room, accessed from a painted, grained six-panel door with a five-pane overlight to the corridor, and from the re-opened front door, has a single rough beam. A chamfered beam is present on the partition to the upper room, which also includes a similar centre beam and shutters to the eight-pane front window. The upper floor has a 17th-century doorcase into the upper end room, made of ogee-moulded oak, and may be a reset exterior door. Two cased beams are in the upper room, while the middle room has two beams, one with a large stepped ogee stop to the chamfer, and the other with a simple runout to the chamfer. The lower end room has a beam over the fireplace, which has a 17th-century oak lintel, ovolo moulded with stepped ogee stops; the moulding is pinched at the centre into a tiny cross motif. The roof trusses have been replaced with seven pegged collar trusses made of pine.

The rear range includes an entrance hall with a painted-grained six-panel door to the original house and an attractive curved stair on the back wall, featuring stick balusters and a ramped rail. An elliptical arch and panelled reveals surround the pointed stair window. A moulded cornice is present on the first floor, along with three six-panel doors. The roof of the rear range has four trusses with curved collars.
