Description

Red House Farmhouse is an 18th-century farmhouse, possibly with earlier sections, that has undergone later alterations and additions. It is constructed of red-brown brick with a rubble sandstone rear and features a Welsh slate roof with stone coping and ridge chimneys. The building is a 2-storey, 3-bay range with a 2-storey, 2-bay cross wing that consists of two builds, with the rear part likely being substantially from the 19th century.

The first floor and ground floor of the gable end of the cross wing have top-hung windows from around 1980, set in original openings, complete with stone wedge lintels and stone sills. There are French windows on the ground floor. The entrance is located in a pent porch at the angle between the main range and the cross wing. The gable end of the cross wing features stepped bands at the floor levels and tumbled-in brickwork.
