Description
Broadhey Farm Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1893 by Douglas and Fordham for the 1st Duke of Westminster. It features brown brick with blue diapering and a grey slate roof topped with red ridge tiles. The asymmetrical two-storey design includes two gables and one half dormer at the front. The gables are adorned with terracotta copings and ball finials at their bases and ridges. There are two chimneys with sandstone plinths and spiral flues made of moulded brick, each topped with projecting caps. The windows are surrounded and mullioned in hard red moulded brick and fitted with iron casements, although the leaded glazing has been removed. A gabled projecting porch features a basket-arched doorway that contains boarded double doors made of oak, which are hung on ornate wrought iron hinges.
