This is Pontop Pike Farm, south of Dipton village and at 312m (over 1000 ft), the highest farm in the area. The gable view shows a common feature of these old early 19th century farmhouse, that is, the fact that they commonly have a single storey extension to the rear, with the roof sloped down over this. A catslide roof is the term for this feature.
