Tagged with: Stable Farmhouse Architectural structure
A probably early C17 two unit, gable entry farmhouse; enlarged in later C17 when a two storey extension was added at uphill end. During C19 there was some refenestration but since then there have been very few changes and the farmhouse retains a strong historic character. At the time of resurvey (September 1999) the building was unoccupied.
Substantial two storey farmhouse. Rubble stone; slate roof with centre rendered stack. NW front faces farmyard. Early C17 house (to left) has, on ground floor (l to r); small 2-light window with iron stanchion and inner shutter; then a diamond mullion (former 6-light window) which has three surviving beaded mullions in centre flanked by iron stanchions, and internal shutters; next is ruined wall of former external stone stair; and then the entrance doorway, plank door with strap hinges. First floor has (l to r) C18 metal casement with timber lintel and stone sill; next a small square opening with timber lintel and metal casement; then a boarded loft door (formerly reached by stone stair). A vertical break in the masonry separates the later C17 addition (to right). On ground floor is a 3 3 pane casement; then a stone tiled lean- to (former cider house), which has plank and batten door with ‘trident' strap hinges. On first floor are a 4 4 pane casement and a 3 3 casement. SW gable has C19 4-pane horned sash in gable head, similar window on first floor with angled dripstone and stone sill, and on ground floor a barred window with angled dripstone (left) and a window which has an 8-pane casement (left), a centre mullion, and a 12-pane sash (right). Rear elevation faces SE. Later C17 addition (to left) has big lateral chimney stack with moulded cap and rectangular stone flue. First floor has C19 4-pane horned sash with segmental arch.
