Full description:
Farmhouse, now house, with attached barn. Probably C17 origins, altered and refenestrated late C18/early C19 with C18 barn. Coursed squared stone, stone slate roof. 2-storey, 3-bay house with 2-storey rear outshut to right; barn on right of 3 + 1 bays, slightly set forward. House: quoins. Openings have plain stone surrounds, windows with flat faced mullions. On ground floor, door to right of 3-light window with windows of 4 and 3 lights to right. On 1st floor, three windows, the left two each with 1 mullion remaining. End stacks and another to ridge between bays 2 and 3. Barn: main 3 bays have quoins, central round-arched cart-entry with tie-stones, narrow window above, and square vents on left. Added bay on right, without roof at time of resurvey. Rear: house: outshut has quoins, a 3-light chamfered mullion window to ground floor and another window, with mullions removed, above. C20 single-storey outshuts to other bays not of interest. Barn: opposing cart-entry and window above it as front; door on right; blocked mistal door on left. Left return (house): former 1st-floor taking-in door. There was a chemical works here in the C19 and dyeing possibly went on before as the dyehouse to the north-west appears to date back to the early C18.
