Description
Barrack Farmhouse is a linear farm building that includes a house and barn, dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed from thinly-rendered sandstone rubble, featuring ashlar quoins and dressings. The house has a roof made of stone flags, while the barn has a roof of concrete tiles. The building has yellow brick chimneys and stands two storeys high, with a four-bay barn and stable alongside a two-bay house.
The house features flat stone lintels above a boarded Dutch door in the second bay and the main house door in the fifth bay. Similar lintels and projecting stone sills are present above a central boarded loft door on the first floor, two ground-floor windows with lower glazing bars, and one first-floor barn window. The house includes one ground-floor sash window and two first-floor sash windows, all with late 19th-century glazing bars, flat stone sills, and lintels. There is a blocked hearth-entry door to the right of the barn. A porch was added to the house around 1900. The return gables display reverse crow steps, and there are two ridge chimneys at the ends of the house.
