Description

Two Mills Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the late 18th century. It is constructed of Flemish bond plum brick and has a Welsh slate roof, featuring two gable brick chimneys. The building has a double-pile plan and is two stories high, with a nearly symmetrical three-bay south front. The end bays contain cased 12-pane sash windows with cambered brick heads and stone sills. The central entrance is a half-glazed door with a fanlight that has vertical glazing bars, also under cambered brick heads. Above the door, there is a similar 12-pane sash window. To the right, there is a one-storey extension that is of no special interest. At the rear, there is an early 19th-century extension that features a two-light sliding sash window with glazing bars below and a small-pane iron casement with intersecting tracery above. Inside, the farmhouse has four-panelled doors with moulded ledges. A room in the southeast corner has a wide, now blocked fireplace with a weak bressumer and exposed ceiling beams.
