Farmstead and sawmill, still in use, built in 1861. The farmhouse also served for a time as Police accommodation. The OS 1st edition map shows a house and garden, with an H-plan steading and three rectangular buildings (sawmill) to the south-east. The 2nd edition OS map shows the easternmost building has been extended. The farmhouse, built in 1861, is a single storey and attic, L-plan farmhouse with Tudor details, constructed of stugged, squared and coursed granite with polished dressings and abase course. The principal elevation has timber cross windows, and there are two later box dormers. Ashlar coped skews have scroll-bracketed skewputts, there are ball finials to the porch and dormerheads and coped gablehead stacks to the end gables. It is to the north-west of the steading, which was also built in 1861. The steading is constructed from squared and coursed granite with ashlar dressings, and is made up of a single-storey linking range, with cart arches, granary/hayloft openings, a recessed wheel with cast-iron undershot and ashlar coped skews with scroll-bracketed skewputts. At right angles to the south of the steading is a freestanding toolshed added in 1864 and fuel store added in 1870-71. The sawmill is a single-storey L-plan building, mainly constructed from coursed granite rubble with a slatted timber drying shed at the south. There are banked drystone walls of squared and coursed granite to the north-west and south-east of the steading, with earth banked to the inner wallhead.
