Farmhouse. Probably C16, extensively refurbished in C19. Plastered cob and rubble; stone stacks topped with C19 brick; thatched roof. L-shaped building. Main block facing south-west has 3-room-and-through-passage plan with inner room to right (south-east). Gable-ended rear kitchen block behind service room. Massive volcanic stone lateral stack projecting to rear of hall, projecting end-stack to inner room and outer lateral stack to kitchen. On inner side of kitchen, roof carried down over outshot sheltering rear passage door. 2 storeys throughout. 3- window front of entirely late C19 fittings. 4-panel door left of centre with overlight and slated monopitch hood on curving wooden brackets. Large ground floor 3-light casements and smaller 2-light casements in first floor dormers under gabled roofs with shaped barge-boards. All windows are late C19 and have glazing bars and many original glass panes. Interior not inspected but no features earlier than C19 are said to be exposed and roof inaccessible. Many are probably hidden since layout is distinctively C16.
