5/64 Mays Leary Farmhouse, including
- stable, shippon and slaughter
house adjoining at east end
- II
Farmhouse with stable, shippon and slaughter-house attached. Farmhouse probably
early C18, extended probably in late C18. Stable; shippon and slaughter house mid
C19. Farmhouse rendered stone rubble and cob. Half-hipped thatch roof. Partially
demolished stack at left end and axial brick stack. Stable, shippon and slaughter-
house stone rubble with asbestos slate roof.
Original plan of farmhouse consists of 2 heated principal rooms to each side of
passage with stairs to rear, with 2 rooms added probably in late C18 to right, the
axial stack (formerly gable end) heating also the left-hand room, the right-hand
room formerly a dairy, with loft over. The farmhouse may well at one time have been
in two occupations. The stable, shippon and slaughter house extend from the right-
hand end to form an L-shaped plan.
2 storeys. C19/C20 fenestration. Left side has two 2-light casements 6 panes per
light above 3-light casements 6 panes per light flanking leanto slate roof to porch
with inner plank door. Right side has a 2-light casement 6 panes per light on each
floor to left, and a 2-light casement 3 panes per light to ground floor right of
leanto slate roof to porch. Original fenestration, including a 2-light casement
with square leaded lights, intact to rear.
Interior joinery largely intact to ground floor.
Doorways with timber lintels to stable and shippon. At right end of latter is
partially infilled cart entrance suggesting this originally served as a barn. The
slaughter-house, projecting at right angles at right end, is still in use as such
and retains all its C19 fittings including timber axle and wheel hoist and brick
floor.
