Pigeonstown House

Detached T-plan three-bay two-storey farmhouse, built c.1830, with earlier house to rear, c.1740, and entrance porch to front elevation. Hipped slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles and rendered chimneystacks. Ruled and lined rendered walls with stucco quoins. Square-headed window openings with timber sash and casement windows and sandstone sills. Square-headed door opening with timber panelled door and limestone step. Outbuildings to rear yard with pitched slate roofs and coursed sandstone walls with yellow brick dressing to later ranges. Sandstone carriage arched openings and flat-arches to door and window openings. Decorative cast-iron piers to front site with Greek key openwork. Cast-iron double gates to road supported by square-profile stone gate piers.

The modest symmetrical nineteenth-century façade of Pigeonstown House conceals an earlier eighteenth-century house to the rear. The single- and two-storey outbuildings to the yard enhance the setting of the house. Of particular note is the quality of the stonework to the openings on the outbuildings. The cast-iron entrance gates and cast-iron Greek key uprights to the front site contribute an artistic interest.
