What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey farmhouse, built c.1820, with entrance porch added c.1880, and canted bay to south-west. Hipped slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls with a limestone eaves course. Square-headed window openings with tooled limestone sills and timber sash windows. Some replacement timber casement window to rear and side elevations. Square-headed door opening to porch with stucco cornice. Ruined two-storey outbuildings to yard to north-east of house. Walled garden to north-east of house. House accessed through wrought-iron double gates supported by rendered piers and flanked by railings on a plinth wall.
The modest form of this farmhouse is enhanced by the retention of many original features. Of particular note are the tall six-over-six timber sash windows and lime render which contribute to the significance of the house and its character. The now ruined outbuildings to the enclosed yard once made a positive addition to the property. A large walled garden survives to the north-east of the house.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
