Details

BEAWORTHY BEAWORTHY SX 49 NE 2/42 Town Barton - GV II

Farmhouse. Probably late C16/early C17 although all early internal features are concealed; extended and altered in C19. Rendered stone rubble and cob walls. Gable ended slate roof, scantle slates to right-hand side, slightly projecting rubble stack to left gable end, large rendered rubble axial stack and C19 axial brick stack. Originally 3 room-and-through-passage plan, lower end to the right. Hall heated by stack backing onto the passage and with shallow projecting hall bay at the front. Inner room heated by gable end stack; lower room apparently unheated until gable end stack was inserted in C19. Probably at this stage the building was extended at the lower end with an out-building. Later C19 outshuts added at rear of left-hand end. In the C19 original features were covered up and the hall subdivided with a staircase inserted at the rear. 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4 window front of circa late C19/early C20 casements which are 3-light except for first floor window left of centre which is 1-light. Shallow hall projection to left of centre. To right of centre is late C19/early C20 gabled brick porch with C19 panelled and part glazed door behind. C19 outbuilding extension at right-hand end and outshut at rear. Interior: no early features visible but beams and open fireplaces are likely to be concealed. The feet of the principal rafters are not visible in first 1st floor rooms so it is unlikely that the roof trusses are early.
