Description
The East Farmhouse is a house, likely originally dating from the 17th century, with extensions added in the early 19th century. The older part of the house is constructed from heavy whinstone rubble with a boulder plinth, while the 19th-century additions are built with smaller rubble and cut sandstone dressings. The roof is slate, with 20th-century brick stacks.
The south elevation is divided into two sections. The two-storey left section is the oldest part of the house, featuring renewed doorways and four-pane sash windows set within openings with timber lintels. There is a coped gable at the right end, along with a rebuilt right-end stack and a truncated left-end stack. A single-storey, two-bay section to the right contains a 20th-century window within a tooled-and-margined alternating-block surround; a twelve-pane casement window is situated to the right. The right end gable is coped with a truncated brick stack. The right return side of the house has a four-pane sash window.
The left return side shows a small, stone-surrounded window at the gable end of the oldest part of the house. Set back further to the left is a taller two-storey, two-bay rear wing, with raised pilaster strips at the corners and a renewed door within a 20th-century porch. This wing also has four-pane sash windows in raised stone surrounds. The gables are coped, with a truncated right-end stack and a rebuilt left-end stack set on a stone base. The interior of the house was not inspected.
