What is recorded here

Detached three-bay single-storey over basement farmhouse, built c.1850, with double-pile return to rear. Hipped slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, rendered chimneystacks and replacement rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls. Replacement Wyatt windows to front elevation with stone sills. Timber sash windows to rear and sides with stone sills. Segmental-headed door opening with rendered reveals and soffits surrounding plain glazed fanlight and replacement timber door and sidelights. Sandstone steps with cast-iron railing access door. Wrought-iron gates lead to yard. Two-storey stone outbuilding to yard with pitched slate roof abutted by lean-to bay with corrugated-iron roof.
Mountain View is a farmhouse that expresses a very Victorian feel. Though it is a two-storeyed structure, its villa-like façade makes it look smaller than it is. The double-pile rear return appears much larger, revealing the farmhouse's true size. Wyatt windows and a central segmental-headed door opening create an agreeable exterior, which is complimented by roughcast rendered walls.
