Description
A late 18th-century farmhouse with an attached outbuilding is constructed of narrow red brick in an English garden wall bond, with a rubble rear wall. The farmhouse has a pantiled roof with old brick chimneys, cogged eaves, and coped gables featuring shaped kneelers. The main farmhouse is two storeys and three bays, and has a central, replaced six-panel door set within a 20th-century open-pedimented doorcase, and a blind fanlight above. The windows are replaced 12-pane sashes, set with projecting sills and flat arches of gauged brick. The rear of the farmhouse features brick quoins and replaced sashes, including a mid-wall, round-arched stair window. To the right of the farmhouse is a two-storey, one-bay outbuilding with a single 20th-century casement window and a renewed pantiled roof. A one-storey outbuilding is attached to the rear of the farmhouse; a similar detached outbuilding with a hipped roof is not considered to be of particular architectural interest.
