What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey farmhouse, built c.1820, with porch added to front. Set within its own grounds. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks, terracotta ridge tiles and timber eaves brackets, terracotta ridge cresting with finial and decorative timber bargeboards. Pebble dashed walls with smooth render quoins and ruled-and-lined render to porch. Timber sash windows with tooled stone sills. Timber casement windows with moulded render surrounds to porch. Square-headed doorway with timber panelled door. Pitched random coursed outbuildings to east.
The appearance of this modest farmhouse is enhanced by the attention to detail. The decorative window surrounds of the porch add visual appeal to the façade while complimenting the plain but original sash windows of the farmhouse. The retention of such original features adds architectural significance to this structure. In all, the farmhouse along with its sizeable outbuildings creates an interesting group of domestic buildings.
