House, used in C19 as stables or ancillary farm buildings, re-used as house.
Probably early C16, with alterations for use as farm buildings; C20 alterations.
Granite rubble with granite dressings, large granite quoins. Slate roof with ridge
coping tiles of C20, with gable ends; stacks removed.
Plan : The building appears to have been of 3-room plan, with entrance hall
entered from porch; one room to right and 2 to left; the room to right heated by a
rear lateral stack, room to left end with a doorway to front and to left side at
upper level. This may be a fragment of a formerly larger house.
2 storeys, ground floor has three 3-light windows, in granite, with 3-centred arched
lights, hollow-chamfered with recessed spandrels; end window to left has central 4-
centred arched light. C20 glazing. 2nd bay from left has 4-centred arched doorway,
hollow-chamfered with recessed spandrels. 2-storey gabled porch has 4-centred arched
doorway with roll mouldings, hollow-chamfered with hood mould; door possibly of C17,
with strap hinges. 3-light similar window above doorway with hood mould and
limestone coat of arms of the Rashleigh family set above in recess with hood mould.
6 C20 gabled dormers. The right side has similar 3-light granite window at ground
floor and first floor large C20 window with segmental head. Left side built into
the bank, with C20 stair to first floor glazed door. This was possibly inserted at
the time of the conversion to farm building use. The end left room was formerly
heated by a stack at the left end, now removed. The rear has a C20 brick stack
rising from eaves to right and left, heating the rooms to each side of the porch
entrance.
Interior Much altered in late C20.
