ST STEPHENS BY SK 38 SW LAUNCESTON 11/126 Colhay
II
House. Circa early C17. Rendered and painted stone rubble and cob, hung with asbestos slates on lower right hand side. Projecting stone rubble end stacks with brick shafts and brick shaft to rear lateral hall stack. Plan: Three room and cross passage plan with ground sloping down to the right. The entrance is to the left of centre and thus unusually the hall is geographically lower than the entrance. The left hand room is heated by an end stack, the hall by a rear lateral stack and the inner room on right by an end stack. The 1-room plan circa C17 wing to the rear of the passage and hall may have originally been built as a stair projection but is now used as a scullery. The 1-room plan wing to rear of the inner room is heated by a large end stack and appears to be C19, although it is possible that it has earlier origins, possibly as a service wing. C19 outshut to rear of left hand room. The house was partly remodelled in the late C19 being divided into two houses, the inner room and rear service wing occupied by one house and the hall, passage and left hand room by another house. Exterior: Two storeys. Asymmetrical 3 window front with ground sloping down to right. Entrance to left of centre with part glazed C20 door flanked by C19 24-pane sash to left and C20 window lighting hall to right. Part glazed plank door to far right. The ground floor windows and door to right have slate dripmoulds above the openings. First floor lit by two C20 2-light casements with further 2-light casement to right. Interior: Early C20 stair inserted in passage and fireplaces blocked with C20 grates. Heavy chamfered floor joists with stepped stops in front range. Roof structure not inspected.
