Description


CHULMLEIGH
SS 71 NW
4/2 Beara Farmhouse
- II
Farmhouse. Probably C17 origins, much altered in early C19. Stone rubble and cob,
upper storey rendered. Bitumenized hipped slate roof. 2 front lateral stacks
heightened in brick, with offsets, that to left has tapered cap.
Plan: 2-room and virtually central staircase plan, the small right-hand room at
upper end divided axially, with a dairy outshut at the rear. The staircase is a
C19 insertion, the original plan possibly conforming to a 3-room plan, the lower
left end having been demolished, the door at the left end possibly originally giving
entry into a through-passage, with the hall to right and inner room beyond, both
heated by front lateral stacks.
Exterior: 2 storeys. 2-window range. C20 fenestration, all 3-light casements, 6
panes per light. C19 4-panelled door between the stacks, with 1 of the stones of
the right-hand jamb inscribed 'Painted 1821'. Leanto slate roof to porch at left
end with plank door giving direct entry into hall. Long low range of C19
outbuildings with 5 plank doors and slate roof extends at right angles from left
end.
Interior: much altered in C19 and C20. Both fireplaces are concealed, and no
visible ceiling beams. C19 joinery mainly intact. Roof not accessible.
