Description
High Leam Farmhouse is a house from the early 19th century, built with ashlar stone at the front and random rubble at the rear and in the lower wing on the right. It features a Welsh slate roof and has a central-staircase layout. The building is two storeys high and has three bays. There are three steps leading up to an 8-panelled door that is framed by an alternating-block surround. The 12-pane sash windows also have similar surrounds and projecting sills, with alternating quoins and a deep moulded cornice. The gabled roof has flat coping and two stone corniced gable stacks.
To the right, there is a lower one-bay wing that has a 20th-century sash window below and a 16-pane sash window above. At the rear, there is a round-headed staircase window with Y-tracery. Inside, the staircase features square balusters and a wreathed handrail. All doors are 6-panelled and there are panelled internal shutters.
