History

Built or extensively rebuilt in the C17, and further extended in the C19.

Exterior

Built of local shale rubble on large boulder foundations, with a slate roof. Two storeys, probably 2-room downhill plan in origin with gable end stacks, developed by extensions to an 'L'-plan with attached stable at upper end, and farm range at right angles at lower end. Boarded door to main living room, and 9 and 12-paned sash windows. The stable has a stable door and window to a loft over. The house is extended by 1 bay to E, probably originally an added parlour, and has an upper floor within the roof and gable stack. Nine-paned sashes. Raised gabled dormer on W side. Two stone stacks with yellow clayware pots.

Interior

The main living room has a very large fireplace, boxed in C19 boarding with a gun shelf over. Large chamfered cross beams with cut stops.
