through-stones above this. The doorway, offset slightly right,
is square-headed, with a board door and a wide but shallow
porch with thick stone side walls carrying a shallow pitched
tiled roof (open to the front, the apex supported by a strut
from a shaped wooden lintel). To the left is a 2-light
casement with 4-paned lights, to the right a small 4-paned
sashed window, and at 1st floor 2 small 2-light casements.
Gable chimney to left. Taller barn (qv) attached to right-hand
gable. Left gable has set-back lean-to extension. Rear:
shallow full-height outshut to centre and south-west end (now
rendered) with doorway at ground floor and 3 very small
chamfered 1-light windows to the upper floor (that in the
centre lower, being a stair-window).
INTERIOR (inspected through windows): ground floor now a
single vessel, with 2 lateral beams and rear right-hand corner
enclosed by muntin-and-rail panelled partition. Forms group
with barn attached to north-east end (qv) and with garden wall
