Description

Five Crosses Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1700, which was refronted and extended to the left around 1830. It is constructed of brown brick with a rendered front and left gable end. The building has two storeys plus an attic and features three windows, with attic windows located in the gable ends. There are flush gable chimneys and a chimney situated at the drop in roof level between the central and left windows. A small canted one-storey bay window is located at the centre, likely replacing a former doorway. The windows are 16-pane recessed sashes.

Inside, there is an altered inglenook against the right gable wall, and a blank lobby in the right front corner suggests a previous lobby-entrance plan that has since been modified. The interior includes a painted oak newel stair with wavy splat balusters, doors with two and three fielded panels in the upper storeys, an oak-framed spine partition, and oak purlins in the attic. There is also a cellar that is partly brick barrel-vaulted.
