Description: | Stone-built house with outbuildings, one having an exposed timbered roof. Early bell-frame on roof of house (damaged). The highest part of these buildings appears to have been enlarged. There is now a stopped-up door and window in the side wall, suggesting that the level of the land has been raised. Reputed to have originally been a coaching house but numerous grindstones lying about and used in the recent building of stables, together with a stream running past the house, strongly suggests a grinding wheel. Rowarth, Chantrey's uncle lived at Ryecroft Farm (see Gibson. Dore, page 56). John Read lived there from 1846 until his death in 1862. 1827 Fairbank survey; owned by the Duke of Devonshire, tenanted by John Read. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.0/uk/ |
