SD40NW WIGAN ROAD, Westhead 663-1/4/198 (North side) Mawdesleys Farmhouse with attached barn

II

Farmhouse and barn in laithe-house form. Probably mid to later C18; enlarged and altered. Brown brick in English garden wall bond (3+1), with roofs of slate and stone slate respectively. Single-depth 2-unit plan with added range to rear of house, and 2-bay barn continued to the right. The house is of 2 low storeys, 2 windows, with a lean-to porch in the centre, and 2 segmental-headed 3-light windows on each floor, all small-paned casements; and a ridge chimney and gable chimney, both with water-tabling for a former thatched roof. The added rear range has sliding sash windows. The barn has been altered by early removal of the former waggon doorway on this side, but the stone bases of the jambs remain.
