4/3 Colquarnel
II
House. Probably C17 or earlier. Stone rubble. Steeply pitched slate roof with
gable ends. Stone rubble end stack on right and axial stack to left of centre.
Plan: The plan is unusual and the original arrangement uncertain. The house was
possibly of 3 room and through passage plan with entrance to right of centre. The
right hand room heated by an end stack, the small narrow room above the putative
passage unheated and the room beyond to left heated by an axial stack in the lower
cross wall. The front entrance to the passage has been blocked. There is no sign of
there having been a screen on the lower side of the passage and the cross wall on the
higher side continues up to the apex. The entrance is now directly into the narrow
central unheated room which functions as a stair hall with C20 stair to rear. There
are the remains of a C17 stair turret to the rear of the left hand room.
Exterior: Two storeys. Asymmetrical 4-window front. Ground floor with entrance to
left of centre, through small single storey C19 pumphouse. C20 glazed door to left
and 2-light casements in earlier entrance and 3-light casement to right. First floor
with three 2-light casements and 3-light casement to right.
Interior: Central room has fairly slight chamfered ceiling beams. The right hand
room has chamfered beams with run-out stops. The fireplace in the left hand room has
a chamfered granite lintel and jambs and to rear are the jambs of a C17 door frame to
the stair turret. This stair has been altered, the projection being enlarged to form
a bathroom. Part of the stair survives and has granite treads.
Roof structure not accessible
