Description

ST 11 SE CLAYHIDON
6/9 Gollick Park Farmhouse
-
II
Farmhouse. Possibly mid C17 with later alterations and addition. Random rubble
chert with some brick window surrounds; gable end slate roof. Originally a 3 room,
through-passage plan house, the service end to the right of the passage, and with a
wing to the front of the inner room. Service end heated by an end stack; hall
heated by an axial stack backing onto the passage; unheated inner room. The wing
was originally one room deep and heated by an end stack; a vertical masonry joint
shows that it was extended by a further room which served as a kitchen, sharing the
same stack, and with a bake oven. 2 storeys.
Exterior Front: 3 window range; all windows with rusticated surrounds and late C20
p.v.c. frames; rusticated quoining. Brick and stone porch. One C19 casement window
to the wing, the others all late C20. Rear of main range with brick window
surrounds, late C20 frames rear porch converted into W.C. Left-hand gable wall with
occulus.
Interior: the survival of one leg of a roof truss suggests that the original roof
was of jointed cruck construction; present roof C20. Service end divided by axial
partition, probably modern. Hall fireplace blocked. The screen between hall and
inner room is an extremely interesting example of late variant of a traditional
form: 3 muntins and the head beam with convex moulding form 2 and part of a third
panel which are composed of vee-jointed planks, finished to hall side, rough and
nailed to inner room side. The earlier of the 2 rooms in the front wing has
interesting chamfered and unstopped ceiling beams forming 4 panels.
