Description
Main's Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid-18th century, with some alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed from sandstone rubble, featuring quoins and ashlar dressings, and has a Welsh slate roof with stone gable copings and yellow brick chimneys. The building has two storeys and three bays, along with a one-storey, one-bay pent extension on the right side.
The central doorway is wide and has a renewed lintel with a recessed 20th-century door. The windows have plain stone surrounds, which are wider in the outer bays, and the glazing has been renewed. The pent extension is blank. The roof includes moulded kneelers and a chimney at the right end, while the left end chimney has been truncated. At the rear, there is a full-height central square-plan stair turret. The farmhouse likely incorporates masonry from the nearby Roman fort Vindomora. The interior has not been inspected.
