History
Shown on the 1840 Tithe Map, the farmhouse is likely to have been built in the early C19. Disused at time of Survey.
Exterior
Roughly coursed rubblestone with large quoins and slate lintels to windows; slate roof with integral end stacks, left more substantial with slate drips, and coped verges. 2 storeys with single-storey gabled ranges to rear and to right forming rough L-plan. 3-window front, centre window blind, with glazing bar sashes to both floors, all windows sheeted over at time of Survey; central entrance through C20 lean-to porch. Rear and right ranges have integral end stacks.
Interior
Simple interior has large open fireplaces with timber lintels to ground-floor rooms. Plain early C19 dog-leg staircase with ramped handrail, closed string and stick balusters; slate floors and plank doors; copper to stack in right range.
Reason for designation
Substantially unaltered early C19 farmhouse, still within the local vernacular tradition, which with the adjacent cowhouse forms part of an intact farmstead group.
