SS 81 NW ROSE ASH NETTLEFORD HILL

9/115 Nettleford Old Farmhouse
-

II

Farmhouse, disused at time of survey. Circa mid C17, possibly re-roofed in the C19.
Rendered cob and stone rubble; slate roof, gabled at ends; left end stack, front
right corner stack.
Plan: Single depth plan, 2 rooms wide with a rear right projection containing the
stair and an entrance into a lean-to adjoining at the left end. It is possible that
this was originally a 3 room and cross passage house, the lower end having been
truncated and the present lean-to occupying the position of the former passage,
leaving the C17 hall, to the left, and an inner room parlour to the right.
Exterior: Asymmetrical 2 window front with late C19/early C20 small-pane timber
casements, C19 front door into lean-to at left.
Interior: The left hand room has a C17 chamfered stopped doorframe from the lean-to,
an open fireplace with a chamfered stopped lintel and a bread oven and crossbeam with
scroll nick stops. The right hand room has a chamfered crossbeam and a C17 chamfered
stopped doorframe to the rear right stair projection which contains a C19 or later
stair.
Roof Apex not inspected but principal rafters appear to be straight and may to C19.
