History

Probably built in the late C17 or early C18, the farmhouse was remodelled in the early C19, at which time the attached and adjoining farmbuildings were also constructed.

Exterior

2-storey main range aligned roughly east-west with full-height range at right-angles to rear (south), continuing into attached farmbuildings, forming basic L-plan. Irregularly coursed rubblestone, roughcast to left gable end, back wall and rear range; slate roof. Front has 2-light 18-paned horizontal sliding sashes with slate cills to both floors on either side of roughly central entrance with depressed arch of brown brick and recessed 4- panel door with side lights. Integral end stack to right and massive external end stack to left, both with C19 reddish brown brick shafts; small roughcast stack towards foot of roofslope on left. Farmbuildings, also on 2 storeys, forming L-plan at rear, the main range (stables with hayloft above) running southwards from rear range of farmhouse; roughly coursed rubblestone with slate roof, hipped to short range (small barn). First floor of main range has 2 square eaves windows with doorway to right in hip-roofed projection breaking eaves, approached by external stone steps at junction with farmhouse; ground floor has segmental-headed window to centre flanked by doors, wider to right. Short range has wide segmental-headed doorway to right, with ventilation slit on left; small rooflight. Single-storey range of cowhouses with altered openings (some infilled) attached to left end of this range.
