Wilkesley Farmhouse

Wilkesley Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse with significant 19th-century additions. It is constructed of red Flemish bond brick, with a plain tile roof. The main facade is a complex arrangement of at least four builds. The two bays on the right are recessed, with the bay furthest right appearing to be the oldest section, featuring a 3-light 19th-century casement window on both the ground and first floors. Three diamond patterns of blue brick are visible to the right of the first-floor window, with a partial pattern on the left. Adjacent to this bay is a similar bay, seemingly of a different build, separated by a vertical break in the brickwork; both share a common roof with chimney stacks to their gable ends. To the left is a 19th-century T-shaped portion, whose tail adjoins the gable end. A single-bay addition has been built into the re-entrant angle, featuring a 3-light cambered-headed casement window at ground level, a single-light window to the left, and a 20th-century lean-to porch with a half-glazed door on the right. The first floor has a central 3-light casement window. This portion is distinguished by a toothed band at eaves level. To its left is one gabled end of the 19th-century T-shaped portion, with two cambered-headed 2-light windows on the ground floor, a single first-floor window of two lights, and a single cambered-headed attic window above. The left hand side has an extensive 19th- and 20th-century outshut, and a single-light casement window to the ground floor, a 2-light cambered-headed window to the first floor, and a single attic window above. The rear features gabled wings on the right (forming the other end of the T-shaped addition) and left of centre, constructed of 19th- and 20th-century brickwork with 20th-century windows. The interior retains chamfered ceiling beams on the ground floor, plank doors with strap hinges on lugs, and some 17th-century roof timbers.
