Farmhouse now house, with attached barn now store. Dated 1711
on spice-cupboard; enlarged and remodelled probably in early
to mid C19, and recently altered. Slobbered rubble with
quoins, slate roofs with some stone slate to the rear slopes.
U-plan formed by 2-unit transitional double-depth house on
north-south axis facing west, with side wings attached at both
ends (that to north the barn), each with a wing projecting to
the west.
EXTERIOR: the house, 2 storeys and 2 windows, now has a small
gabled porch in the centre protecting a doorway with C20
part-glazed door, flanked on each floor by 2 large rectangular
windows with recent multi-pane joinery: that to the right at
1st floor is crossed internally at half-height by the ceiling
of the upper room, and to the right of it is the lintel of a
former 1-light window. Gable chimneys. The re-entrant side of
the south wing has an oblong window with glazing bars at
ground floor, and its gable wall has a similar window at
ground floor and a rectangular 2-light casement above. The
rear wall of the main range has (inter alia) three 2-centred
arched windows at 1st floor ,that in the centre larger and
with Y-tracery. The former barn attached to the north has a
square window at ground floor of the re-entrant and a
rectangular window at 1st floor of the gable wall.
INTERIOR: the former housepart in the south bay has 2 lateral
beams, a muntin-and-plank rear partition wall, a large C18
rectangular fireplace with a corbelled lintel and moulded
surround including a moulded false keystone, and to the right
of this a square spice-cupboard with a fielded panel which has
incised lettering "D / R R / 1711"; the chamber above (which
is the room with the ceiling crossing the window) has a
muntin-and-plank enclosure of a former smoke-hood. The north
bay has been raised and remodelled.
The former barn to south is now integrated at first floor
level with the house.
