Description
Model Farm House is a farm house built around 1880. It features planted timbers and red brick with a gabled red tile roof. The building is two storeys high and has four bays, designed in the Elizabethan style. The entrance is a two-storey, gabled, three-way, cove-jettied projection with planted timbers at the first floor level and a gothic headed six flush panel door on the side. The ground floor windows are cast iron, multi-glazed casements arranged in pairs, with terra cotta mullions. The first floor generally displays planted timbers in cross and quatrefoil patterns along with timber casements. There is a treble bracket supported square oriel at the first floor level on the north gable, featuring Crewe Estate emblems on carved stone panels between the brackets. The main gables are half hipped and include reeded barge boards, crested ridge tiles, and stacks with heavy caps. The building is listed for its group value only.
