History

Possibly C17. The main range of this building stands to the north approximately in line with but detached from the original part of the farmhouse. The southern three bays possibly predate the remainder of the building.

Exterior

Quasi-rubble slate stonework with timber-framing clad in vertical boarding on the gables to north and east above eaves level. The roof is of slate, generally in small courses, partly patched in more regular slating. Tile ridge.

The front elevation has one small timber dormer and three doors and four windows alternating with the doors. Loft gable hatches to south and east. Gable wall door and side slit ventilators in the rear wing; door and window and a side hatch in the monopitch extension.
