Description
Old Farm is a house dated 1694 on the lintel, constructed with a timber frame, brick infill, and a slate roof. It stands two storeys tall. The entrance front features a stone plinth and nine by three cells of small framing, with angle braces in the first and fifth cells. The windows are 20th-century replacements, consisting of two and three-light casements. There is a blocked doorway on the far right, which also has an incised date on the lintel. The building has extensive 19th-century additions on both the right and left sides. The rear of the house is similar, featuring two 19th-century two-light dormer windows.
