Description
Broomhouse Farmhouse is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with a slightly later 18th-century range added to the rear. The porch has been altered, and the right bay was extended forward in 1857. The building is constructed of brick, with the earlier sections in irregular bond and the later parts in English Garden Wall Bond, featuring ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof. It has a double span.
The house is two storeys high and consists of four bays, with rusticated quoins and an ashlar plinth. The mid-18th-century porch, located in the third bay, has a Tudor-style parapet and a new cornice added in 1857. It features a six-panel door set within an eared architrave, complete with a pulvinated frieze and cornice. The left three bays contain windows that originally had intermediate glazing bars, now removed, and are framed by architraves. The building also showcases finely-moulded sill strings and a cornice.
The broad right bay, which projects slightly, was added in 1871 and replaces two bays of the original five-bay house. This bay features a two-storey canted bay window, with many of the bricks and quoins reused from the earlier walling. The roof is gabled, with splayed coping and renewed brick end stacks.
Inside, the farmhouse includes six-panel doors and a staircase adorned with decorative cast-iron balusters.
