II

Farmhouse with yard boundary wall and piggery. Late C17 or
early C18, much modified. Whitewashed rubble, some
slatehanging, slurried slate roof. The farmhouse is on an
L-plan, with a cross passage flanked by rooms with front
lateral stacks and a rear kitchen wing; transverse rear
staircase.
2 storeys. The entrance wing has 2 large slate-hung external
eaves stacks. Windows have almost all been replaced in the
late C20, but in early openings. On the entrance side is one
window, and a central plank door on strap hinges in a late C20
brick porch; there are 3 dove holes. The 4-window return wing,
facing the yard, has four 2-light above 2 at the ground floor,
with an area of slatehanging to the upper storey. This wing
has a cropped gable stack or ventilator, and seems likely to
have been added to the original range. The inner faces of the
wings have various casements, and a plank door to the cross
passage, and the N gable is plain.
INTERIOR: part of the ground floor only was accessible. Most
original detail has been removed or modified; the cross
passage is in concrete, and fireplaces include one from the
mid C19, with tiles. No beams are visible. There are some
plank or panelled doors.
SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: on the entrance side is an opening to the
yard, then a rubble wall approx 1m high to a rounded top,
which returns to the small gabled piggery running parallel
with the return wing. This has a door in each gable end, and a
full height plank door in the centre of the long side. The
wall then continues opposite the S wing, and returns to it at
the gable end.
