What is recorded here
Farmyard complex of single and two-storey buildings, built 1828, having cut-stone entrance archway. Complex includes two-storey house with three-bay first and two-bay ground floor, having pitched slate roof, rendered walls and chimneystacks and replacement uPVC windows and doors, and single-storey lean-to rear extension and which was rear return of otherwise demolished main house. Farmyard buildings have pitched and hipped slate roofs, rendered walls and cut-stone square-headed arches to doors and windows with segmental-headed carriage arches. Walled garden to southwest entered through carriage arch with date '1828' inscribed in keystone. Three-bay single-storey gate lodge to east having projecting entrance bay containing panelled timber door flanked by windows. Lodge has hipped slate roof with eaves brackets and rendered walls with render plinths and rendered chimneystack. Elaborate gateway comprising six granite columns and cast-iron railing and gates.
This attractive farmyard and gate lodge are associated with the now demolished Baronne Court country house. Well maintained and in constant use, the quality of these buildings indicates the importance of the original house. The contrast of the cut limestone surrounds and the painted and rendered random stone walls in the farmyard provides these buildings with a distinctive character.
