Farmhouse. Mid-late C17 with early C18 extension and alterations and C19
roof alterations to wing. Squared rubblestone, graduated stone slate roof.
L-plan with 2-storey porch in angle between body of 2-storey house with 4
first-floor windows, and the projecting 2-storey with attic 2-bay gabled
wing on right. Quoins. Board door to porch in heavily moulded architrave
with cornice and semi-circular pediment; ball finials to outer ends of
cornice; cross-window (lower mullion missing) in architrave and ogee gable
above. The main body of the house has a C20 board door in chamfered
quoined surround to left end, with a 3-light recessed chamfered mullion
window to left again, the mullions restored; similar windows of 2 and 4
(one mullion missing) lights with hoodmoulds to centre and right; 4 small
windows in recessed chamfered surrounds to first floor. Gabled wing to
right of porch: paired 24-pane sashes to ground floor, in moulded
architraves, paired sashes with glazing bars in deeper architraves to first
floor; a cross window in architrave similar to first floor is set high in
the gable. A projecting string course at first-floor level to porch and
wing. Stone gutter brackets, shaped kneelers to wing and to left porch
gable, eaves stack above gabled projection to left of centre on the main
body of the house; a tall corniced stack to eaves of wing, right. Interior
not inspected at resurvey. The entrance bay and wing were probably altered
in the early C19 when the upper storey was added to the wing and a cross
window moved into the shallow apex of the gable. The ogee gable to the
porch was also possibly added at that time.
