Full Description

Foundations of farmstead and longhouses visible with the farmhouse remaining. The buildings are depicted on the OS historic maps, along with a limekiln circa 50 m to the north. The 1st edition map shows an L-plan arrangement of rectangular buildings west of the farmhouse, a rectangular building orientated northwest-southeast shown southwest of the farmhouse, centred at NJ 15674 18920, a well to the southeast with a small rectangular building and enclosure to the northwest of it. By the time of the 2nd edition map only the farmhouse building is shown as roofed, with a rectangular enclosure shown to the east, the limekiln depicted as 'Old Limekiln' and the building near the well no longer shown. On the current OS edition map only the farmhouse building remains shown, the L-plan buildings are ruins, with the earlier enclosures, the building to the southwest, the well and limekiln no longer shown. A photographic survey was carried out in 2022 prior to proposed redevelopment of the farmhouse.
