Description


ASHOVER
MILLTOWN
SK36SE
1264-0/8/78 (East side)
31/01/67 Wash Farmhouse
(Formerly Listed as:
MILLTOWN
Wash House)
GV II
Farmhouse. Dated 1670, with C20 additions and alterations.
Coursed squared gritstone with ashlar dressings, quoins, coped
gables with moulded kneelers, ridge and gable ashlar stacks,
and a Welsh slate roof. West elevation of 2 storeys and
attics, 4 bays, with a former doorway against the ridge stack
giving a lobby entrance plan. The doorway, with a massive
lintel and a quoined surround, is now blocked, with inserted
coupled 4 x 3 pane glazing bar sashes standing on a masonry
base. To the north of the former doorway is the present
doorway with C20 door. At the north end, an altered 3-light
chamfered mullioned window. To the south of the earlier
doorway is a single-light C17 window, and, at the west end, a
modern 2-light casement in an earlier surround. The window and
doorway heads are linked by a string course, which steps
upwards over the original doorway. At first floor level are 2
unaltered 3-light chamfered mullioned windows beneath
individual drip moulds, together with a single-light C17
opening and a later 2-light chamfered mullioned window. There
are 2 gabled dormers, with coped gables, moulded kneelers, and
ball finials to the gable apex. These have 3-light chamfered
mullioned windows beneath drip mouldings. The north gabled
dormer apex carries a plaque inscribed 'I M N 1670'. The south
dormer has a C18 firemark. Windows are generally leaded
casements; those to the attics appear to be early. The
remodelling and extension to the rear was carried out in 1988.
