Description
Barhill Farmhouse is a farmhouse built around 1840, constructed of smooth-rendered brick and topped with a steep grey slate roof. The building has two storeys plus an attic. It features a Roman Doric doorcase with pilasters, a flat entablature, and panelled reveals, which frames a four-panel door with a margin-paned overlight. On either side of the door, there is a single-storey canted bay window with three recessed 16-pane sash windows. The upper storey also has three recessed 16-pane sashes. Each end-gable of the attic includes two small-pane iron casements.
Attached to the rear of the farmhouse is a cheese room that has one storey plus an attic and abuts a one-bay rear wing. The interior of the farmhouse suggests it was originally built around 1700 and later recased. Inside, there is a corner chimney breast in the front room on the left, an inglenook fireplace against the right gable wall with a small fire-window, and an oak staircase with one flight per storey, featuring newels and two turned balusters per step, with the balusters of the lower flight covered in hardboard. The right room of the main block and the rear wing have oak stop-chamfered beams. Broad-boarded doors lead to the rear rooms of the lower storey and most of the upper rooms.
