Full Description

Farmstead, depicted on the 1st and 2nd edition OS maps, still in use. Shown on the 1st edition map as a single long rectangular steading, which on the 2nd edition map has been added to its east to form an L-plan building. The east, L-plan end of the steading appears to survive along with a small section at the west end (this may be a new building aligned on the footprint of the old building). Photographic recording of the steading was carried out in 2014 prior to conversion. A Level 1 Standing Building Survey of the farmhouse was carried out in March 2018 by MAS prior to proposed demolition. It was recorded as a fairly typical 19th century farmhouse, although unusually the old wash house boiler had not been removed.
