Description

Home Farmhouse and Farm Cottage is a farmhouse dating from the mid to late 18th century. It has a rendered exterior and a mid-20th century concrete pantiled roof, featuring rendered gable copings and two end stacks. The building is two storeys high and has two bays. The windows on the ground floor are renewed sash windows, arranged in a tripartite style, all with glazing bars. There is a round window with glazing bars situated between the bays on the first floor.

Adjoining to the right is a lower two-storey farm cottage, which is now part of the farmhouse. This cottage has a late 20th century door with a pedimented doorcase to the left, along with one ground-floor window and two first-floor windows, all of which are horizontal sashes with glazing bars.

There is a single-storey outhouse adjoining to the right, but it has been altered too much to be of interest. Additionally, there are late 19th century rear extensions to the farmhouse and outbuildings to the south and west, which are also not of interest.
