Details
SAMPFORD COURTENAY SS 60 SW 5/160 Solland Farmhouse II Farmhouse. Early C17 possibly with medieval origins, altered in C19. Rendered cob walls. Thatch roof gabled to left end hipped to right end. Slightly projecting rendered rubble stack at left gable end with brick shaft, brick axial stack and projecting rubble and granite ashlar lateral stack at rear with brick shaft. A brick stack adjoins it. Plan: 3-room-and-through-passage plan with lower end to the right possibly extended at the higher end. Hall stack backs onto the passage, lower room heated by rear lateral stack. The house was probably extended at the higher end in the C18 or C19 when an untreated wing was also added to the rear of it. In the early - mid C19 a passage was created between the hall and inner room and stairs put into the rear wing. Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4 window front of circa early C20 small-paned 2 and 3-light casements. To left of centre is C19 6-panel door with rectangular fanlight above. In front of the right-hand end of the house a cob wall has been built enclosing a small courtyard and a C19 4-panel door opens from the house into it. At the rear a wide wing projects from the right-hand end with a cob leanto to its left. Interior: hall has a framed beamed ceiling but the beams are cased in plaster. The higher end wall has a section of C17 panelling which would have formed a rack to a bench. C18 roof structure which is of simple pegged A-frame type but the existence of one apparently smoke-blackened common rafter by the hall stacks suggest that a medieval roof preceeded it.
