Llanerch

The interior contains a main living room with chamfered spine beam and cut stops, with a large inglenook gable fireplace and a blocked opening on its left, perhaps an oven or smoking cupboard. To the right of the stack a dog-leg stair. A door by the stair opens to the dairy, now the kitchen. The inner bay is divided into two, and has evidence of a cruck truss in the gable end against the farm building. The stair well beside the fireplace is timber framed, with evidence for a further extant cruck in the NW gable end, and for the roof having been raised, perhaps in the C17. It now carries 2 tiers of purlins. The centre collar beam and strut truss of the house has the principal rafters trenched for purlins, and added rafters carrying the single tier of purlins at a higher level. The joints of this truss are numbered by chisel. The ridge piece is set at an angle.

The barn in line has two pairs of curved cruck trusses set on a wall plate on stone footing walls. The building appears to have been widened on the SW for part of its length, retaining the winnowing floor with evidence for flanking half walls. The tie beams and collars are trenched and double tosh-pegged over the cruck blades, and the apex is abutted. The third truss, at the lower end before the two-storey end extension is of collar and tie beam type. This end bay has a cowhouse at the lower level, and perhaps a granary over.

The farmhouse is downhill sited, constructed with slate rubble laid on bed, and whitewashed, and has a slate roof. The early farmhouse and farm building are set in line across the contours, the farm building at the lower end, and the farmhouse at the upper. The main entrance door, of uPVC and now deeply recessed in the NE wall, has been moved from a position adjacent to the cross wing, where it was sheltered in a porch. uPVC windows throughout, with a small dormer to the upper floor room (bathroom) over the dairy in the end wing, and timber lintels. Part external stack at the upper end, and on the end of the wing.
