29.6.1966 The Rochdale Childrens Moorland Home (formerley listed under - II Nick Road Lane)

Farmhouse and attached buildings, now children's home. 1756 on stone lintel. Watershot stone with stone slate roof. 3-unit 2-storey farmhouse with porch to central unit. The attached buildings to the left have an outshut porch to the front and a wing and extensive C20 addition to the rear. By the presence of a cart entry, now a door, it would appear that these were farm buildings, maybe a barn. Farmhouse has various 1, 2 and 3-light flat-faced mullion windows and a projecting porch. The 3-bay building to the left has a central cart entry with 4-piece square-cut jambs and dated lintel; the projecting porch in bay 3 seems to have been added as does a lean-to which has a 3-light chamfered mullion window. The gable has a 3-light chamfered mullion window with hoodmould at first floor level.
