Description
MONKTON GORE STREET TR 26 NE (South Side) 1/53 Gore Street Farmhouse 13-10-52 GV II*
House. C16 and C17 altered c. C19. Timber framed and rendered. Plain tiled roof. Complex plan, possibly originally a hall house, now with various framed ranges almost enclosing a courtyard. Front elevation: 2 storeys on plinth, with continuous jetty on 3 brackets, 3 satyrs and dragon posts at the corners, returned on right elevation. Three jettied gables projecting from main hipped roof with stack cluster to centre right, and single stack to the front of that, and projecting at end left. Three wooden casements on first floor, and 3 shuttered glazing bar sashes and 1 tripartite shuttered sash on ground floor, with a 9 panelled door off-centre right. Right return: a long, lower framed range, continuously jettied on both sides. At the rear of this, and almost closing off the courtyard to south of the house, are 2 C16 structures, set at right angles to each other, timber framed except for one wall built in English Bond red brick. That adjoining house of 3 bays. One storey, the upper walls close studded on brick base with clasped purlins and wind braced roof and large inglenook fireplace. The second of 4 bays, open to the roof, clasped purlin and wind braced roof. Original use unknown, but presumably semi-domestic (i.e. washhouse/ brewhouse?). Weather boarded range beyond this, probably slightly later date, now used as barn.
