HIGH LANE (east end, off)
Bay Ness Old Farmhouse
GV
II
Farmhouse now used for storage. Probably third quarter of C17 with C18 and later additions. Roughly-tooled coursed sandstone, of large size in old part; with plinth. Pantiled roofs (except for some modern concrete tiles on wing) with stone ridge, copings and kneelers; brick stacks, one rendered. L-plan formed by projecting right wing.
Farmhouse faces west into farmyard and is partly built into hillside behind. One storey, with attic at right, three bays, the right bay partly hidden by wing. Between two left bays the through-passage entrance is a stable door in widened opening under chamfered lintel with false voussoirs. A C20 lean-to, using old materials, projects from centre bay and holds boarded door with small window to left. In left bay a three-light chamfered stone-mullioned window with cill and lintel and internal splay. Similar window in second bay concealed by lean-to. Very high pitched roof with C20 raking dormer at right and rendered right end stack. C18 wing, added in two phases, has fixed light at junction with old house, blocked door and modern window on inner return; small cellar window below, (ridge stack and modern dormer). Coal/boiler house added at end. Right return shows modern casements, one inserted in narrow-chamfered gable-end doorway. Blocked two-light mullioned window to rear.
Interior: the two left bays have been converted for barn use, open to the roof, perhaps when the wing was added. Very long, curved principal rafters rest on ties and are linked by pegged collar. Spurs support common rafters which rest on outer edge of walls; there is no wall plate. Right bay, now the dairy, has a ceiling of big chamfered beam and wide chamfered joists. The C18 parlour has its original beams and fireplace; a further room was added a little later. That part converted to barn seems not to have been heated, and is now separated by a brick wall.
