Full Description
Farmstead, still in use, depicted on historic OS maps. The 1st edition shows a U-plan steading, open to the south: on the south side of the court is a rectangular building with attached horsemill on its south side, and south of these an L-plan house with attached garden, and small structure. There is another rectangular building east of the steading. By the time of the 2nd edition map, the northeast corner of the steading had been removed, and its west wing joined to the building to the south. The small structure near the house had been removed. Current maps show that the horsemill has since been removed. A standing building survey was carried out by MAS in August 2016 ahead of proposed demolition. The steading was built of rubble stone with red sandstone rybats and margins, and grey slate roofs with ceramic ridges.
