Description
Detached four-bay two-storey house, built c.1760, having two-bay return elevations. Hipped slate roof with dressed stone chimneystacks. Rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with six-over-six pane timber sliding sash windows with limestone sills.

Appraisal
This well presented medium-sized farmhouse stands in its own grounds. It is enhanced by the retention of much historic fabric, such as a slate roof, timber sliding sash windows and a panelled timber door. The focus of the house is a fine cut limestone doorcase, and the outbuidlings and grounds add context and setting.
