HATHERLEIGH SS 50 NW 3/15 Lake farmhouse and adjoining - outbuilding to South GV II

Farmhouse and adjoining outbuilding which is original house. Older part may be early C16 if its screen is original. The present house is probably C18. Rendered rubble and cob walls. Present house has gable ended thatch roof, outbuilding has corrugated iron roof. Rendered rubble stack at right gable end of house. Plan: original house now outbuilding - of 2 or 3 room-and-through-passage plan, lower end to the left. The hall has a stack at its higher end, if there were an inner room beyond, it was rebuilt as the present farmhouse. The lower end from the evidence of the screen was divided into 2 service rooms. There is no evidence of whether there was an open hall or not as the original roof timbers of this part are all C20 but it could be inferred from the early date suggested by the screen. The present house was added probably in the C18 at right angles to the original house at the higher end of the hall and is of 2-room plan with central entry hall. Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 2 window front of 3-light metal frame casements. Late C20 plank and glazed door to left. Long outbuilding wing projecting from left- hand end which has a 2 window front.
