Interior – late C18/early C19 panelled doors leading off central passage. Outbuilding has roof of two collars to principals crossed at ridges. 2 levels of purlins morticed into rafters. A rare survival of an older farmhouse on the edge of a modern city. Recorded by Peter Ryder in 2014 in advance of restoration. Ryder identified three phases of construction. Phase one - original linear farmstead with a house at one end and agricultural building at the other. The cottage range at the west end of the range was clearly once a farm building as it has slit vents in its south wall. The house was presumably at the east end. The blocked doorway with the 1749 doorway above it, may indicate an original cross passage between house and byre. It is not clear to which phase the datestone applies or whether it is in-situ. The linear range could be a little earlier than 1749. Not long after the middle of the 18th century, the house was aggrandised. The present main block was built in good quality coursed limestone with a outshut on the north. It retained the north wall of the older linear range, but was otherwise rebuilt. The front part retains its original arrangement of rooms. The present central door looks to have originally been a window to light a space under the stair. Was the original front door on the present rear elevation? Or was the putative cross-passage door of the older range retained? The older range was heightened and altered. The section adjacent to the house became a separate cottage. The end was probably still in farm use. Other farm buildings were arranged around a farmyard including a barn with a gingang. In the late 19th or early 20th century the windows were changed and the brick sills and lintels were rendered and painted white to look like stone. The rear part of the main block was heightened and remodelled with a twin-gabled roof. Various small outbuildings were added on the north side of the house. The 1919 OS map shows a detached greenhouse or conservatory in the garden. By 1939 there was a greenhouse attached to the south side of an outbuilding attached to the west end of the cottage. The farmers listed at Middle Herrington in Whellan's 1856 directory are: Robert Errington and George Raine.
