SE31NW CRIGGLESTONE STONEY LANE (north side), Chapelthorpe
2/19 No 2 (The Old Cottage) 22.11.66 (formerly listed as Nos 2 and 4 (Boyne Hill Cottages))
II House, now subdivided into 2 dwellings. Early C16 timber-framed hall encased in stone mid C18 and C19 with mid-late C17 cross-wings. Large dressed stone to east wing, smaller hammer-dressed stone to west wing and hall range, stone slate roofs. 2 storeys. Hall and cross-wings plan, H-shaped. Wings each have weathered plinth and moulded dripcourse, doorway with composite jambs and chamfered surround to one side of 5-light double-chamfered mullioned window with almost square reveals and 4-light window above with hoodmould. Coped gables with kneelers and stone bases for apex finials (now gone). Hall range has central doorway altered to window with, to either side on both floors, a window with slightly recessed mullions and raised surrounds, those to ground floor lacking mullions. Wings have lateral external stacks, that to right with brick chimney. C20 brick stack at junction between hall and west wing. Rear: east wing has 2 bays of small double-chamfered windows: single lights to ground floor with 2-light window and single light to 1st floor. West wing has 2 bays of C20 chamfered lights to each floor. Disturbed stonework to hall range to which has attached single-storey outbuilding at right angles (not of special interest).
Interior: 2 1/2-bay hall of post-and-truss construction has rear close-studded wall braced to wall-plate. Posts with jowelled heads support king-post trusses without struts, braced to square-set ridge; single trenched purlins support rafters of large scantling. The ridge stops short at the east end and there is other evidence for the former existence of a fire-hood. East wing has king-post truss with 8 vertical struts and another truss without struts buried in the front gable wall straight-braced to ridge.
A rare survival in this region. RCHM (England) report.
