Calder Farmhouse and attached cottages
II
Farmhouse and attached former cottages, now farm building. Dated over door in moulded panel A 17 RR 88 for Althea and Robert Roddam. Random rubble with dressed stone for window and door surrounds. Welsh and local slate roofs. Two storeys. House of three bays with central doorway, four cottages at right angles forming an L shape. Ground floor throughout has sash windows, some 12-pane, some sliding sashes, several renewed. Doors and ground floor windows have alternating jambs with horizontal tooling. On first floor the house has Victorian dormers breaking the eaves and partly occupying openings of smaller, earlier windows, surrounds of which remain in part. Similar alterations to upper floor of cottages. Staircases are all mid-C19 insertions. Inside, big fireplaces with chamfered segmental-arched lintels. Probably all formerly single-storey cottages with a complete range of granaries over. The end cottage remains in this form. Admiral Robert Roddam (1720 – 1808) married Althea Calder in 1775.
