Completed c. 1480

Blackmoor Farmhouse at Cannington, Somerset, England and the attached chapel, was built around 1480 for Thomas Tremayll. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1]

It has many architectural features of its period with the roof structure comprising a series of jointed crucks together with some curved wind-braces still in place. There are coffered ceilings and a plank and muntin screen with soot blackening to one side now in one of the upstairs rooms (possibly re-sited from being a screens passage at the entrance to the main hall where one would expect to see this type of structure).[2]

The farm now offers bed and breakfast accommodation and is a wedding venue.[3][4]
