Description

Church Farm House is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century, with later alterations and additions. It features a brick nogged timber frame and brickwork, topped with a tiled roof. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a brick rear wing to the north that forms an "L" shape. The house has a high brick plinth with an ogee moulded stone top course and symmetrical timbers in small framing. The upper part of the central bay projects two metres and is supported at the front corners by two Tuscan columns, creating a porch over the boarded and studded entrance door, which is hung on strap hinges. The windows are replaced 2-light casements that slightly project, with those on the first floor level supported by three small shaped brackets each. The roof of the central bay is gabled, featuring crossed timber infilling at the apex. The north gable has planted timbers, while the south gable is made of brickwork. There is a square central stack with divided flues. Inside, the house includes oak panelling, Jacobean doors hung on old strap or "H" hinges, an ovolo moulded inglenook, and floor beams, along with exposed bevelled joists and a staircase with turned balusters.
