SX 27 NE
4/128 Treswell Farmhouse and garden wall
to front
GV II
Farmhouse and garden wall to front. Probably C17 origins extended in later C18.
Stone rubble. Slate roof with gable ends on left and higher slate roof with hipped
ends on right. Projecting stone rubble end stack on left and stone rubble rear
lateral stacks with brick shafts near centre and to right.
Plan: The original arrangement is uncertain. It is possible that the left hand
range is the lower end of an earlier house; one room and entrance plan with entrance
on right, abutting later range and room on left heated by a large projecting end
stack. There is a distinct straight joint between the two ranges. To right the
circa C18 range has a 2-room and cross passage plan with entrance to left of centre,
a larger room on right and smaller room on left, both heated by rear lateral stacks.
To rear of the passage an C18 stair projection. Circa late C18 and C19 service
outshuts to rear.
Exterior: Two storeys. Asymmetrical 2:3 window front. Earlier lower range on left
has dressed stone arch to ground floor window which has a C19 3-light casement. C19
door with hipped slate hood to right. Two C19 2-light casements on first floor.
Higher range on right has a probably C19 4-panel door with slate hipped hood to left
of centre, flanked by two C19 tripartite sashes with dressed stone flat arches. Two
similar windows on first floor with C19 12-pane sash in centre. Rear elevation has
slate-hung stair projection with hipped end to rear of C18 range. Slate roofs to the
lean-to outshuts and single storey small service wing.
Stone rubble and quartz garden wall to front of C18 range.
Interior: Not accessible.
