Description
Tall two storeyed, 2-unit house built against the slope, with single storeyed cowhouse at lower end. Limewashed rubble and thatched roof under corrugated iron. Two doors to cowhouse, at either end, the lower doorway now glazed as a window; both have shallow arched voussoir heads. House has two windows on each floor: small 4-paned casement windows to first floor, top-hung casements below, all with shallow arched voussoir heads; lower windows have concrete sills, but upper windows retain thin slate sills. Modern additions at rear.
Entrance is direct into former cowhouse, which has bolted trusses, woven twig under-thatch and significant remains of straw thatch. Main doorway to house is in gable end alongside stack: pegged frame and boarded door. Internal arrangement of house has been altered, but originally comprised a two-room plan, and there are traces of a partition alongside the second of two lateral sawn timber beams. Large main fireplace, with ladder-type stair alongside it. Two rooms upstairs, and 2 bolted collar trusses (the tie-beams sitting on small blocks resting on the wall plate), limewashed below ceiling. Rough rafters support substantial remains of the thatched roof, with under-thatch and bundles of straw clearly visible.
