East Hagginton Farmhouse including attached courtyard farm buildings. Projecting wing to right end has C17 core altered in early C19, when the main range and front courtyard farm buildings were built. C20 extension to rear of wing. Whitewashed stone rubble to main range, the wing of rendered stone rubble with gable end wall of cob. Slate roofs with gable ends. Adjoining stone rubble stacks with tapered caps and drips to right gable end of main range and rear gable end of C17 wing. Courtyard buildings of stone rubble with corrugated iron roofs. C19 range consists of principal room to each side of through passage with C17 wing with lower ridge level projecting at right angles at right end. This has only one heated ground floor room, but appears originally to have extended further forward to judge by the inserted cob wall at the present front gable end. The original range was thus probably partially demolished and the remaining structure adapted as a kitchen wing to service the main range when it was added in the early C19. The farm buildings, comprising bullock sheds and stables to each side and linhay opposite the main range, face inwards and complete the overall 4-sided front courtyard plan. 2 storey. Main range has 5 window range. Symmetrical. 2 C20 transomed windows on each floor to left side, otherwise C19 12-paned horned sashes. Ground floor windows have slightly cambered brick arches. Central projecting stone rubble porch with gabled slate roof. Plank inner door. Wing to right has two 2-light casements, 2 panes per light above similar window to left of inserted C20 door. Former dairy outshut to rear rebuilt to 2 storeys in late C20. Linhay has stone rubble infilling between circular piers to loft height to left and to full height to right of cart entrance. Interior: hollow step-stopped chamfered lintel to fireplace in wing with cloam bread oven and cast iron door. 2 roughly chamfered beams with run out stops. C19 range interior largely altered in C20. Roof trusses probably early C19 throughout with purlins resting on backs of straight principals with pegged lapped collars.
Date first listed: 9th April 1987
