Farmhouse. Early to late C18. Squared and coursed rubblestone. Stone slate roof with coped verges and ashlar end stacks. Double- pile plan. 3-storey symmetrical 3-window front. Central door has stone hood on brackets and moulded case. Ground and first floor windows are 12-pane flush sashes with 6 pane sashes to second floor. Flush quoins and plain window architraves. Rear facade is 2 storey and under outshut roof, with early C19 lean-to extension to left. 3 windows are 2-light beaded mullions with casements. Same casements on rear half of gable ends, but sashes to front half. Interior: large stone 4-centred arched fireplace in room to front left. Plain stone square-headed fireplace with keystone to rear left. Ceilings of rear part of house are lower and flue levels different from front. 4 and 5-plank doors. The difference between front and rear seems to suggest a remodelling of the front in late C181early C19, of an early C18 house.
