- II

Farmhouse. Probably C16 core, entirely remodelled in mid to late C17 with C20
alterations. Painted rendered stone rubble and cob. Asbestos slate roof with
gable ends. Rendered rear lateral hall stack with offsets and brick shaft to stone
rubble stack at right gable end.
Plan: Former 3-room and through-passage plan, lower end to left, the front and
rear through-passage doorways blocked and windows inserted, the lower end truncated
to form a dairy but original foundation walls and door openings survive, with new
doorways made probably in the C19 direct into the hall towards the lower end and
into the passage created out of the lower end of the parlour. Stair turret to rear
of hall. Largely demolished former C18/C19 kitchen wing to front of lower end.
2 storeys. 5-window range. All C20 3-light mullions. Ground floor has early C20
4-light hall window to right of C19 stone rubble porch with pantiled gabled roof,
semi-circular arched doorway and 4-panelled inner door, the upper panels glazed.
C19 6-panelled door, the upper 3 panels glazed towards right end.
Interior. Cambered chamfered timber hall fireplace lintel. Creamery niche to
right. C19 wall bench to front wall. Probably C18 staircase with wide timber
treads to stair turret to rear of hall. Parlour has boxed in ceiling beam. C19
ledged plank doors principally intact. C17 roof structure survives below C20
superimposed one, of pegged trusses with straight principals, halved collars and
trenched purlins. No sign of smoke-blackening. In the stair turret is a small
timber mullion window with trefoil-headed lights, the mullions cut out, possibly
reset and suggesting the core of the house is earlier than the majority of surviving
features would suggest.
