Description

Church House Farmhouse, now a house, was probably built in the late 17th century and altered subsequently. It is constructed of brown brick in an irregular bond, with a graded grey slate roof. The farmhouse is two storeys plus an attic, with gables at each end. It has a symmetrical façade with three windows. The front door has been replaced. There are two three-light wooden casement windows on each storey, and a small one-pane casement above the door. A four-flue brick chimney rises from the centre of the ridge. A basket-arched casement window is present in the right gable, while the left gable-end features two brick basket-arched window heads, one of which is blocked. Blocked openings are also visible at the rear. A mid-20th century single-storey extension has been added to the rear.

Inside, chamfered oak beams with oak joists are visible in both rooms on each floor. An ingle-nook has been altered in the lower right room, and blocked in the lower left room. Two enclosed staircases, against the rear wall, run from the left and right sides, meeting at a central rear landing on the first floor, with a further stair leading to the attic which contains windows and splat balusters at the head.
