The house from the south-west on a summer evening, looking into the corner of the L, with a low sun from the west, a meadow of long grass and cow parsley in front and gritstone edges on the skyline. Two steep dark slate roofs of one ridge height meet in a valley, over walls of vertical larch boards weathered silver-honey with slim dark corner trims. One roof window sits in the main wing's slope facing the yard, near the valley, and a slim black flue rises behind. In the corner, a flagged yard with an old oak table and mismatched chairs, two timber raised beds of herbs and lavender, and the glazed back door standing open onto a lit room with shelves of books. A neat stack of split logs at the west gable, small anthracite-framed windows in both wings, and an old broad tree, dry stone walls, a field gate and sheep beyond.
