The description should be amended to read:-

Farmhouse, now house. Late C16/early C17 remodelled in C19, when
walls heightened and interior mostly altered. Coursed limestone
rubble; gabled Welsh slate roof with brick and rendered left-end and ridge
stacks. 3-unit through-passage plan. 2 storeys; 3-window range.
Segmental C19 stone arches over C20 door and two and 3-light
casements; to ground-floor right are hood moulds over late C16/early
C17 chamfered stone-mullioned three and 4-light windows. Similar 3-
light window to rear. Interior: ground floor room to right has
survived C19 remodelling: it has open fireplace to left backing onto
through-passage, with chamfered timber bressummer and chamfered stone
jambs; plank and muntin partition with chamfered top rail and muntins
has remnants of late C16/early C17 wall painting with traces of
flowers and arabesques picked out in black. A notable survival.
