House. Circa late C17 - early C18, with alterations and additions of C19 and C20.
Painted stone rubble. Asbestos slate roof with ridge tiles and gable ends. Gable

Plan: 2-room plan; the larger room to left was the kitchen, heated from a gable end
stack to left. Smaller parlour to right, heated from a gable end stack, with passage
between the 2 rooms. Circa C19 a shippon with loft was added at the right end, with
doorway to front. The shippon is now part of the house.
Exterior: 2 storeys, asymmetrical 3-window front. First floor has three C20 2-light
2-pane casements. Ground floor has plank door with glazed panel set off-centre to
right. Two 3-light 3-pane casements to left of C19 and one C19 2-light 3-pane
casement to right, all with timber lintels. The shippon is to right, the doorway
with 6-pane window inserted and timber lintel; two C20 rooflights. At the left end
is a stepped external stack with a curved oven at the base. Single 2-pane casement
at first floor to right. The right end has C20 door to left. At the rear, there is
a C20 door and 2-pane window to left, with small single light at the rear of the
passage and C20 window with timber lintel to right. At the rear of the shippon is a
3-pane C20 window.
Interior: The gable end fireplaces have been rebuilt in C20. The room to right has
C19 ceiling beams and the room to left had narrow-chamfered beams. The rest of the
house may retain other interesting features, such as early joinery, including doors.
