Description


TQ 64 SW CAPEL HALF MOON LANE (off)

5/265 Dislingbury Farmhouse

II

Farmhouse. Late C17, possibly earlier origins. Timber-framed on brick
footings, clad with weatherboarding; brick stack and chimneyshaft; peg-tile
roof.

Plan: Farmhouse faces south west. It has a 3-room-and-through-passage plan.
Unheated former service room at the right (south east) end. It is separated
from the hall by the passage and parlour at the left end. Axial stack between
hall and parlour serves back-to-back fireplaces. Stairs rise from parlour
between stack and front wall. Despite its plan-form which suggests medieval
origins what was seen on the ground floor suggets it is wholly C17. Maybe the
roof would provide evidence of earlier origins.

2 storeys with attics in the roofspace and lean-to outshots across the back.

Exterior: Regular but not symmetrical 3-window front of C20 casements with
glazing bars. Small fourth ground floor window lighting the stairs left of
centre. Front doorway is right of centre and contains a C20 door. Roof is
half-hipped both ends.

Interior: Not available for inspection at the time of this survey but plain
C17 carpentry detail was seen on the ground floor. Hall and parlour have
plain chamfered axial beams and both fireplaces are brick with plain oak
lintels.
