House. Circa early C17 or earlier. Rendered stone rubble. Asbestos slate roof with
half-hipped end on left and gable end on right. Gabled end to 2 storey porch. Stone
rubble end stack on right and rear lateral stone rubble hall stack to rear right.
Plan: Original plan uncertain and interior inspection not accessible. 2 room and
through passage plan, built along slope with ground rising gradually to right. Wide
through passage to left of centre with large hall to right, possibly heated by rear
lateral stack, the chamber above possibly heated by the gable end stack. Smaller,
probably service room to left. 2 storey porch. In circa C18 a stair was probably
added in a projection to the rear of passage, replaced with a circa C19 dog-leg
stair. In circa C19 the service range was extended with a wing of 1 room plan to
rear left. Lean-to outshut to rear of hall with catslide roof, possibly C18.
Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4-window front partly altered in late C20. Gabled
2 storey porch to left of centre with granite chamfered segmental arch with hood
mould and carved spandrels. C20 PVC window above. Lower end to left with C20 PVC
window on ground and first floor. To right, the hall was probably lit by a wide
mullioned window with a slate string above; now a wide 3 light C20 p.v.c. window. 2
C20 PVC windows above. Lean-to outshut to rear with catslide roof and ovolo moulded
timber lintel above blocked door, now a window.
Interior not accessible at time of survey (1986). However this house may have
several interesting features and interior inspection may help to date this house more
accurately.
