GV II

L-shaped linhay, probably U-shaped originally, the right-hand arm (not included in
the listing), having been converted to living accommodation in C20. C18 or C19.
Stone and timber. Slated roof with clay ridge-tiles. Lower storey has open arcade
with 7 granite posts, 4 in left arm, 1 at the angle and 2 at the base of the V.
Upper storey, in which only the rough floor-beams survive, has studded front
covered with weather-boarding. Roof-trusses have plain principals, notched at
apex. Collars, nailed to face of principals, have vertical posts nailed to them
and to the apexes of the trusses, to carry a plank ridge. Makes an excellent group
with Southbrook Farmhouse (q.v) and Southbrook Cottages (q.v.) in a largely
unspoiled hamlet.
