4/19 Moss Side and adjoining former barn

II

Farmhouse and former barn now private house. Late C17 with C19 extension; late C18 or early Cl9 barn with C20 alterations. Mixed rubble with red sandstone dressings, under graduated greenslate roof with roughcast and yellow brick chimney stacks. Former barn with roughcast walls under graduated greenslate roof. 2 storeys, 3 bays with 2-storey right-angled barn to right forming overall L-shape. C20 door in alternate-block surround. 2-light stone-mullioned windows with smaller firewindow to right. C20 glazed porch to right side and 2-storey Cl9 extension to rear. Barn now forms integral part of house with C20 windows. Interior of house has beamed ground-floor ceilings. Early C18 stone fireplace with moulded stone mantelpiece. Carved and panelled court cupboard dated 1672 was in the house when the present owner purchased in 1938 and as the doorways were too narrow and windows too small, she thinks it has always been there, although moved from its original position. Interior of barn has alterations dated and inscribed on stone fireplace M.D., R.V.D., 1938 (Arthur Morley Dobson and Rose Virginia Dobson). Reused C18 staircase with turned balusters and carved tread ends, and inscribed C17 & C18 carved panelling, all came from the demolished Grimes Hill, Sedbergh.
