Description


SS 80 SW CREDITON HAMLETS

3/86 Pitt Farmhouse including adjoining store to south-west

II

House and adjoining store, formerly cottages and adjoining linhay. Possibly C17 but mostly early and late C19. Plastered cob and rubble with sections built of brick, rubble or brick stacks topped with late C19 brick; wheat reed thatched roof. L-shaped building with main block facing south-east and rear block behind right end. Roof hipped each end. 4-cell front block comprising 2-room house with end stacks and rear block to right and 2-room store and workshop to left, partly open fronted. Irregular 4-window front of C19 and C20 wooden casements, all except one with glazing bars. 3 doors to right of open bay, one to workshop and one to each domestic room. Left side of house built of late C19 brick and both door and ground floor window have segmental arch heads. Open-fronted section at left end shows one full height timber post from former 3-bay linhay, and it seems likely that adjoining brick section of house encroached into 2 bays of linhay. Plain carpentry detail inside includes presumably reused C17 scroll-stopped crossbeam to brick-built cell and several C18 or early C19 plank doors. Originally it seems right front room and rear block were built as a small farmhouse with adjoining linhay.
