Description
The building is a farmhouse with associated farm outbuildings, reputed to date from around 1695. The name "Court House" comes from its historical use as a courtroom, with the left unit originally serving as the courtroom. Over time, it has functioned as a farmhouse.
The exterior features rubble masonry that is rendered and whitened. The house is two storeys high, topped with a roof of small slates and equipped with a chimney for each unit. The end chimneys have their flues built into the wall thickness, while the chimney stacks above the roof level are made of brick and date from the 19th century. The front has a range of four windows, which are four-pane sashes from the 19th or 20th century, and each window has slate sills. To the right, there is an oven projection. The front door consists of six panels and is topped with a hood supported by shaped brackets. At the rear, there is a full-width extension that is mostly original and includes an oven. A low wall at the front features wrought-iron railings set into the coping, with wrought-iron struts and a gate, all topped with arrow-head spikes.
Inside, the cross-passage from the front door leads to the stairs, which are located within the rear extension. The right unit, which was the old kitchen, has a large fireplace that projects externally to the east and features a large bread oven, although the front of the oven is missing. There is also a cellar beneath the left unit.
The farm buildings include a small rear farmyard. To the north, there is a cowshed with a heck door and a blocked low arch in its south wall facing the yard. To the east, there is a larger cowshed with a granary above it, accessible via stairs at the southern end. The doors are boarded with timber lintels. To the south, attached to the house, is a small stable and a shed. All these structures are built from rubble masonry and have slate or sheeted roofs.
This property is listed as a house of regional character, surrounded by old farm buildings in the rear yard and a wall with iron railings at the front. It also holds group value with the nearby church.
