Full Description
Remains of a small farmstead which is depicted on the 1st edition OS map as three buildings grouped together with a pond and sluice to the west. By the time of the OS 2nd edition two of the original buildings had been joined and further buildings added to the group. An enlarged pond and dam are shown to the west. Forestry Commission survey recorded the remains of the farmhouse in 2008. The house, which shown some fine architectural detailing, comprised four main rooms, each with a fireplace. Photographic recording was carried out by FCS in 2013 prior to proposed demolition. Outside are the remains of what appear to be earlier structures. The interior shows some fine architectural details. The house comprised four main rooms, each heated by a small fireplace. The joists supporting the upper floor are visible in the wall sections.
