(formerly listed as "Western farmhouse,

GV II

Farmhouse, probably early C17. Coursed sandstone rubble with quoins, stone
slate roof with gable chimneys. Now 2 bays, originally baffle-entry; possibly
formerly 3 bays on U-plan. Two storeys. Projecting 1st bay, roof carried down
over it, has plain doorway and 2 square windows; 2nd bay has at the right, close
to the angle with the shippon, a very large blocked doorway with chamfered
surround, to the left a 4-light double-chamfered stone mullion window (originally
5 lights), both these with unusually large hollow-moulded hoodmoulds, and at
1st floor a similar 5-light window without a hoodmould, and a very small
chamfered window above the doorway. To the right the lean-to shippon projects
like the 1st bay, and has remains of an old window (perhaps 4 or 5 lights), and
an inserted door: perhaps formerly a right wing. Left return wall has
inter alia a 4-light window at 1st floor. Rear has, at the junction of the
bays, an outshut like a stair turret (the roof carried down over it) with
remains of a 2-light window, to the left (2nd bay) a 2-light firewindow and
a 3-light window at ground floor, a 4-light window above; and to the right
a 4-light window lacking one mullion. Interior: beams with tongue-stopped
¼-round moulding, and in the end wall of the 2nd bay a very large stone
arched fireplace, now blocked and covered.
