House. Circa early to mid C17. Slate stone rubble, rendered. Bitumen coated rag
slate roof with gable ends and several probably early crested ridge tiles. Catslide
roof over rear outshot. Rendered brick end stacks and rendered end stack to outshot
on rear right.
Plan: Original plan uncertain. Existing plan of 2 room and through passage
arrangement, heated by end stacks with circa C18 outshot added across rear, the back
kitchen heated by an end stack to rear right and the dairy to rear left. The 2 rooms
at the front, in the earlier range would appear to be larger than normally found in
this type of Cornish house.

C20 door in rendered lean-to porch and wide C20 2-light casement to right. Two C20
2-light casements on first floor with 4-pane sash in centre. C20 extension on left
hand gable end.
