Description
Swan Carr Farmhouse is a mid-18th century farmhouse that consists of two sections, with some alterations and refenestration occurring in the mid-19th century. The left section is constructed of rubble with brick infill, while the right section features a rubble ground floor and mid-19th century brick above, laid in English garden wall bond. The roofs are pantiled, and there are brick chimneys.
The farmhouse is two stories tall and has three bays. It displays dressed flush quoins and has four ground-floor openings with brick jambs and gauged flat arches. The right bay contains a 19th-century four-panel door, with a 12-pane sash and two 16-pane sashes (all with cambered heads) to the left. Above, there is one 16-pane sash and two 12-pane horizontal-sliding sashes just below the eaves. The steeply-pitched roof features raised stone verges and a ridge chimney on the right, along with an external double stack on the left return.
Attached to the right is a former single-storey cottage, which was raised in the mid-19th century. This cottage has a boarded door with a replaced six-pane sash to the left and two 12-pane horizontal-sliding sashes above. Its steeply-pitched roof has a central ridge and chimneys at the right end.
Additionally, the farmhouse includes a two-storey outshut and a gabled stair wing at the rear.
