Description

Farmhouse, a C18 refronting of an earlier building. Brick with Swithland slate roof, gable end and axial stacks. 2 storeys, 3-unit plan form. Rubble plinth to 2 principal units may relate to earlier building, the 3rd unit perhaps added only when the refronting took place, since it lacks this plinth, although the dentilled eaves cornice is continuous across the entire facade.
Central door in early C19 doorcase with moulded architrave. Flat headed casements to windows of 2 principal units, right hand unit has cambered heads to windows and a blocked doorway. Timber frame visible in left hand gable end: corner posts, middle rail and arch braces, with some rubble to fire back, and clear indication of refronting.
