What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1905, with extension to rear (north-east) elevation. Hipped slate roof with over hanging eaves and red brick chimneystack. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings with one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows and limestone sills. Segmental-arched opening with overlight and timber panelled door flanked by sidelights. Outbuildings to rear of site with pitched corrugated-iron roofs and white washed walls. Square-profile rendered piers and sweep walls flanking wrought-iron gates to front of site.
The three-bay two-storey form of this building is a common design attributed to large farm houses. Deriving its form from larger Georgian country houses the centrally placed chimneystacks, overhanging eaves and large timber sliding sash windows give a sense of grandeur to the house. Together with its outbuildings this functioning farm contributes to the historic fabric of Monaster village.
