Ardnalee

Detached L-plan farmyard complex, built c.1830, comprising multiple-bay single-storey ranges with former coach house to south. Three-bay breakfront to north range with terminating two-storey building to west range. Pitched slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rubble sandstone walls with dressed limestone quoins to breakfront. Square-headed window openings with limestone sills throughout, having yellow sandstone voussoirs with limestone keystones to quarry glazed timber-framed windows. Three-over-three pane and six-over-nine pane timber sliding sash windows to two-storey building. Segmental-headed carriage arches with yellow sandstone voussoirs and limestone keystones and impost blocks. Square-headed door openings to north range with timber battened doors and limestone thresholds. Remains of cobbles to yard, having square-profile rubble sandstone piers with cut limestone caps and wrought-iron gates. Walled garden to north-east of site having rubble stone walls and rendered pointed arch pedestrian entrance with cast-iron gate.

Buit by the Morgan family in the 1830s, this fine farmyard complex retains its original form as well as many features of interest, such as a fine carriage arch, cobbles, slate roofs and quarry glazed windows. The use of different stone finishes creates colourful textural variation. Unusually it is L-plan, unlike the more common courtyard form of most farmyard complexes, it forms part of an interesting demesne group with Ardnalee House, a walled garden and gate lodge.
