Description

Barley Mount is a farmhouse built from yellow-washed rubble stone, featuring hipped slate roofs and flat eaves. It has two storeys and an overall T-plan shape, with outshuts on either side of the rear wing that create a square plan. A single roughcast brick chimney is located on the rear ridge, just behind the front range. The front has three windows, each with small 4-pane horned sashes. The upper windows lack sills, while the lower ones have cemented sills, and there is a boarded door in the center. All openings are adorned with stone voussoirs.

At the rear, there is a hipped center with a 4-pane sash window on each floor, flanked by outshuts on either side. A door is positioned to the right and a window to the left, both featuring stone voussoirs. The west side wall is roughcast, while the east side of the rear includes a window with stone voussoirs and a door with a timber lintel. The property was not inspected in February 1999.
