Description

Greenmeadow Farmhouse is a 19th-century house constructed from roughly squared, snecked local sandstone rubble, featuring dressed elements and rock-faced quoins. It has a Welsh slate roof and an L-shaped plan. The symmetrical entrance front has three bays, with the central bay gabled and slightly projecting. A gabled porch with coping and a ball finial features an ogee arch and a plank door. Above the porch is a three-light timber window with mullions and a transom, complete with a drip moulding. The gable contains a trefoil with a damaged inscription reading '1852 Miss R Morgan'. The gable has plain bargeboards, and similar windows are present on each floor to either side, with pronounced quoins. The low-pitched roof includes two flue stacks at each gable, with diamond-set shafts. The gable ends of the front range are blind. At the rear, there is a single bay wing on the left side, which has a plain three-light window above a kitchen lean-to and a cross-framed stair window in the gable end, along with a single flue stack at the gable end. The interior was not available for inspection at the time of the resurvey.
