What is recorded here

Detached four-bay single-storey vernacular house, built c.1800, with concrete addition to south-east gable and two dry-stone lean-to outhouses to north-east. Pitched thatched roof with render copings to gables. Smooth painted render and limewashed stone walls built on natural rock outcrops and being battered to north-west gable. Square-headed deeply recessed window openings with replacement timber casement windows. Square-headed door openings with timber glazed and battened timber doors, with stone threshold at front entrance.
This vernacular house has retained most of its original form, with its recessed windows and opposing door openings. Its appearance is enhanced by the worn natural rock outcrop at the entrance threshold, and although the roof has been raised at some point, the thatch has been retained.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
