Description

Redbroke Farmhouse is a farmhouse, formerly a house, dating from the early to mid 18th century. It is built of red Flemish and random bond brick with a slate roof and stands three storeys tall. The entrance front features a central doorway with a panelled reveal, a glazed door, and a rectangular fanlight, all of which are from the 20th century. Flanking the doorway are 20th-century horned sash windows with three panes by four panes, set beneath gauged brick heads and with stone sills. The first floor has three similar windows, while the second floor has two windows with three panes by two panes and a round window in the centre of a shallow gable.

On the ground floor, there is a rear door to the right, which is a 20th-century six-panel door, and to the left, a three-light casement window. The first floor has two 20th-century horned sash windows with three panes by four panes, and the second floor has two windows with three panes by two panes. There are also two mezzanine staircase windows with cambered heads between the ground and first floors, featuring three panes by four panes, and originally there was a similar window between the first and second floors, which is now blocked.

To the left, there is a later single-storey outbuilding from the 18th or 19th century that projects from the main structure. Inside, the farmhouse has a cross passage with small framing on the walls.
