Description

Astle Farm East is a farmhouse dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed of red English garden wall bond brick and features a slate roof. The building has three storeys, with four rooms on each floor arranged around a cross corridor, although it likely originally had a through corridor.

The entrance front has two bays and includes a stone plinth made of coursed ashlar, along with a stone band between the ground and first floors. The ground floor has four-light casement windows with cambered heads, while the first and second floors have similar windows, though smaller and with flat lintels. There are gable stacks on the roof. To the left, there is a 19th-century porch that is part of a two-storey addition, which may have replaced an earlier outhouse.

At the rear, there is a staircase window in the center with a flat head, along with three-light cambered-headed windows on the ground floor and similar windows on the first floor with flat lintels. There are no windows on the second floor. Inside, the ceilings feature largely re-used 17th-century timbers.
