Description


SK 34 SW PARISH OF WESTON UNDERWOOD KEDLESTON ROAD
3/111 (North Side)
Ireton Farmhouse and
13.2.67 attached outbuildings
(formerly listed as
Ireton Farmhouse)
GV II
Farmhouse and attached stabling and cowsheds. Built c1813-15 and
possibly based on a design by Robert Adam of c1760. Red brick,
partly rendered and painted. Plain tile and Welsh slate roofs,
mostly hipped. Stone coped gable with plain kneelers to west
end of north range. One brick ridge stack and one gable stack.
Dentil eaves cornice. One and two storeys. L-plan. North block
consists of two attached parallel ranges, with the farmhouse in
the east part. The rear range is taller, and probably pre-dates
the inner range. The inner range is rendered and painted, and
with a Welsh slate hipped roof. South elevation of 2-5-5 bays,
the middle five bays pedimented. The bays divided by pilaster
strips. The ground floor has an even rhythm of round arched
doorways and windows, the windows slightly recessed so as to
keep the impression of a continuous arcade. Casement windows and
plank doors. Twelve oval windows above, mostly blind. The north
elevation has round-arched doorways and windows to the ground
floor and segment headed windows, and mostly 2-light windows above,
beneath the eaves. The farmhouse occupies the three bays at the
east end. The west range has a centre three-bay block and single
bay pavilions, linked by lower ranges. The centre range has to
west and east three giant round arches with a continuous stone
impost band and brick dentil cornice. Blind circular windows in
the two inner spandrels. Within each blind arch are two tiers
of openings with plank double doors. West side has two windows.
End pavilions with pyramid roofs have similar architectural
treatment. The northern pavilion has an open cart entrance and
a square turret with weather vane. Linking ranges have to west
two windows each, and various openings to east, slightly altered
and abutted by C20 farm buildings. Square turret on the range to
south.
