Description
Saint Dogwells Farm is a farmhouse dating from the 19th or 20th century, constructed of white-painted rubble stone with a slate roof. It features chimneys of painted brick at both ends and a tall square stone chimney on the rear outshut. The two-storey, four-window front has renewed four-pane sash windows. The main house section to the right has two sashes on each floor, with a half-glazed door between them. The kitchen end to the left, under the same roof, has sashes of slightly different sizes on each floor and a half-glazed door to the left. A left-end addition has a small four-pane loft window above the door in the end wall, and a lean-to has been added to the left, constructed of painted brick. The right end wall has one window to the right, located within the rear outshut. The rear outshut features three windows and a door, positioned between the first and second windows, all with brick heads. A 20th-century metal window is present on an addition to the right. A lean-to on the right end wall of the main house includes a loft light with a dripstone.
The farmhouse follows a three-room plan. The lower room serves as the kitchen, and contains a massive timber lintel over a deep fireplace with a bread oven to the rear left; a rounded step is present in front of the left jamb. There are four rough-hewn joists. A door to the left of the fireplace leads to a passage into a slate-floored lean-to, within which a segment of bedrock is exposed. A ladder stair leads to a loft featuring rough rafters, one of which is forked. The middle room has four cased joists and a fireplace on the rear wall, now infilled. Beyond this is an entrance hall with an enclosed pine staircase. The upper end room also has four cased joists and a fireplace with a delicately ornamented early 19th-century cast-iron grate and surround. The rear outshut was used as a dairy, and has slate troughs and shelves. An original end window, now plastered-in, is visible from a bathroom addition.
