Description
Consisting of 2 parallel wings forming a double depth range of whitewashed rubble stone and stone tile roof. The rear wing is divided into 2 units, its N end having a lower roof. The 2-storey front wing is slightly battered and has, above its S gable, the wooden frame of a former clock. Facing the yard to the house on the W side is a segmental-headed sash window lower L in a brick surround, to the R of which is a lower blocked window. In the centre is an inserted doorway and above it the blocked round arch of an earlier opening. To the R is a blocked carriage doorway with a elliptical arch. A tall dormer window added mid-late C19 is centrally placed and has small-pane glazing incorporating a top-hung casement, and is flanked by timber framed panels. To its R are 2 small casements, and to its L a window beneath the wall plate with small-pane glazing and top-hung casement.
The S gable end has external steps up to a blocked doorway. The steps are brick and rubble stone with flagstones for treads. A 3-light stepped first-floor window has chamfered mullions and transom. The rear wing has a blocked vehicular door under a wooden lintel in its S gable end. Above is a segmental-headed window now boarded up. Below and the R of it is a blocked window above the doorway. The gable ends form a continuous facade but are separated by a stone boundary wall abutting the centre.
On the E side the rear wing is 2-storey height with 3 segmental-headed windows boarded up, beyond which, against the N unit, is a rubble stone projection covered with vegetation.
Against the N gable end the front wing has a lower projection, its roof pitch at right angles to the main axis.
The front wing is 2-storey and divided into 3 rooms by rubble stone cross walls. The stairs and first floor were inaccessible at the time of inspection (November 1998). The rubble stone dividing wall between the wings has 4 low round arches, with another arch blocked. Above these arches are 2 blocked windows. The rear wing is open to the roof and has machine-sawn trusses. Against the N gable end is a large hearth, probably for a blacksmith. A doorway in the E wall leads into a vaulted chamber in the projection on its E side, and is flanked by blocked windows.
