House, formerly farmhouse. Circa early C18; probably a remodelling of an earlier house. Rendered cob. Slate roof with gabled ends. Stone rubble gable-end stacks with rendered shafts heightened in brick.
PLAN: Deep plan with central through-passage [rear doorway blocked], parlour on left and kitchen on right, both with gable-end stacks, and with smaller unheated service rooms at back; later outshut at either end.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys. Symmetrical 3-window south east front; C20 replacement 3-light casements with glazing bars and central doorway with plank door and later gabled porch. Later lean-to outshut at either gable end. Asymmetrical fenestration at rear with small casements and central blocked doorway.
INTERIOR: Lower right-hand room [former kitchen] ceiled, large stone fireplace with unchamfered timber lintel and blocked oven and bench against front and cross-passage walls. Cross-passage has cob or stone walls either side, with plank door to kitchen and fielded 4-panel door to parlour with moulded frame. Parlour ceiled and with stone fireplace with replaced lintel. Straight staircase rising from former kitchen with simple stick balustrade and landing with C18 plank doors, one with cover-moulds. Late C19 cast-iron chimneypieces in chambers. 6-bay roof with five trusses, the principals halved and crossed at apex and with scissor-braces halved and pegged to the principals; cob upper end [SW] gable appears to be smoke-blacked.
A largely intact circa early C18 vernacular house, probably remodelled from an earlier house.
