Farmhouse. Probably late C17, with additions and alterations of C18, C19 and C20.
Granite rubble and cob. Rag slate roof with ridge tiles and gable ends. Gable end
stacks, with brick shaft to left, rubble shaft with slate weathering to right and a
small axial stack with granite shaft.
Plan: 3-room plan, originally with a through passage. There is one room to right,
heated from a gable end stack, and 2 rooms to left ; the end room to left is heated
from a gable end stack. The central room may originally have been unheated ; the
axial stack may be a later insertion, heating a first floor fireplace. Later in
circa C18, an outshut was added to the rear of the whole house, of single storey.
Probably later in the C19, the passage was removed, to make the central room larger,
and a new partition wall inserted ; the front door was blocked, so the house is
entered from the rear.
Exterior: 2 storeys, asymmetrical 2-window front. The room to end right has the wall
brought forward, with 4-pane sash at ground floor and C19 16-pane sash at first
floor. The central room has 4-pane sash, and blocked doorway with C20 6-pane light
inserted ; 16-pane sash at first floor. To end left, a large 3-light C20 window at
ground floor. The right end has large external stack with curved oven at the base ;
the outshut is to right. At the rear, the outshut has C20 door and windows, 2
windows at first floor above. Attached at the left end is a C20 farm building.
Interior: The room to right is ceiled, with C20 range inserted in the fireplace. The
original passage has been removed, so the central room has been made larger. There
is a straight stair to the rear of the room to right. Rest of house not inspected.
