Detached three-bay single-storey thatched house, built c. 1780, with three-bay single-storey extension to west. Pitched thatched roof with rendered chimneystack. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks to extension. Rendered walls. Replacement uPVC windows. Outbuildings to site
This attractive complex of buildings is a very good example of vernacular architectural development in a rural setting, with later additions being attached onto the original thatched farm house. The original rural context is well preserved. Thatching represents the survival of a traditional local skill, once of great importance to communities.
