Description

Milne Farmhouse and Barn is a 17th-century farmhouse and hind's cottage that have been combined into one house, with an attached barn and a wall and implement shed in front. The remaining buildings date from the 18th century. The structure is built of sandstone rubble, with the house being thinly rendered and featuring an irregular plinth. The roofs are covered with 20th-century tiles and stone slates.

The farmhouse is two stories high with five bays, while the barn is one story and has one bay. There is also a one-story wall and shed that projects to the right. The door in the third bay has a chamfered square-headed stone surround, and there is a chamfered flat-Tudor-arched surround under a relieving arch for the door to the right of the fourth bay. A similar relieving arch is found over a window to the right of this door. The windows vary in size, with most being late 19th-century sashes that have wood or stone lintels and some stone surrounds. There is a blocked two-light stone-mullioned window in the second bay on the first floor. The low second floor, partly in the roof space, features three small square windows at the eaves, which have stone surrounds with shallow roll mouldings. The building has three chimneys, with the end chimneys on massive external stacks, and stone gable copings. The right barn, which is partly obscured by later buildings, has a small square opening on the first floor and a stone slated roof.

The wall projecting from the right side of the house contains a square-headed doorway and connects to a storage shed that features large quoins, pigeon holes, and shelves in the front gable, along with a stone-slated roof.

Inside, the beams in the left ground-floor room have concave-stopped chamfers. The right ground-floor room has a chamfered segmental chimney arch over a 19th-century kitchen range made by Ord & Maddison, Makers Darlington.
