- II
Shown on O.S. map as Middle Twitchen Ball.
Farmhouse, now house. Mid-C19, with probably late C19 outshut to rear. Uncoursed
stone rubble with some red-brick dressings. Gable-ended asbestos-slate roof. Stone
stacks with brick tops.
Plan: Two-room plan with roughly-central entrance and external end stacks. Facing
south-east. Larger principal room to left and smaller room (present kitchen) to
right. Staircase between rooms, rising from entrance lobby. Outshut added to rear
(see straight joints), probably a late C19 addition. Small low outhouses flanking
front of house. Two storeys (including outshut) and one-storey outhouses.
Exterior: Asymmetrical 3-bay front; C19 two-light wooden casements with brick
segmental heads (left-hand ground-floor window is a late C20 replacement). Roughly-
central C20 half-glazed door with brick segmental head. Right-hand end of outshut
with C19 two-light wooden casements to each floor.
Interior: Largely complete mid-C19 fixtures and fittings. Left-hand ground floor
room has open fireplace, and L-shaped wooded bench along front and left-hand walls.
Blocked fireplace in right-hand ground-floor room. Stone-flagged floors and old
boarded doors throughout. First-floor rooms not inspected. This is a good example
of a mid-C19 farmhouse, which now rarely survive in such an unaltered state.
