What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house with breakfront, built c.1800, now disused. Pitched slate roof with brick chimneystack. Roughcast rendered limestone walls. Square-headed openings with two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows to ground floor and casement to first. Timber battened door set in square-headed opening. Slightly lower two-bay single-storey outbuilding with loft attached to north-west gable of house having segmental-headed carriage opening with timber battened double-leaf door, and two-bay outbuildings to southwest and southeast, forming courtyard to front of house. All having pitched slate roofs and roughcast rendered and exposed limestone walls. Rubble limestone wall to road boundary with wrought-iron gate.
This house with outbuildings, set around a courtyard, comprise a notable example of a traditional farmyard. The house and outbuildings are of the same style, form and of roughly similar height which give the complex the appearance of regularity and symmetry. The breakfront to the house is an interesting architectural feature of this modest building.
