6/198 Burnshall Farmhouse - II

Farmhouse. 1850s for the Bedford Estate. The main block is slate-hung. Hipped slate roof with deep eaves, 2 rendered stacks, the north wing is whitewashed and rendered. Double depth main block with a north wing probably consisting of service rooms and accommodation for servants. 2 storeys. Symmetrical 3-bay front with a rebuilt central gabled porch. Windows are 12-pane sashes in deep reveals. There has been some C20 replacement of windows on the east side of the house but the embrasures are intact. Interior Largely modernised. The Bedford Estate moved the site of Burnshall Farm from the other side of the road between Chillaton and Coryton Station to its present site in the 1850s. The farmhouse was associated with the most elaborate of the Bedford Estate planned farmyards in the parish although the farm buildings have been modernised in the late C20.
