Description
Walnut Tree Farmhouse is a farmhouse located on Chester Road in Walton, primarily dating from the early 19th century, although it likely incorporates some earlier elements. The building features painted brickwork and has a grey slate roof with a square central chimney made of brick, which has sloped projecting courses that indicate it may have originally had a steep-pitched roof, possibly thatched. It stands on a high sandstone plinth and has two stuccoed brick buttresses at the corners. The farmhouse is two storeys high and has four windows. The front of the house includes small-pane casements set beneath camber-headed arches, while the later rear section has paired two-pane sashes also under camber-heads. The entrance is a boarded door situated in a plain projecting softwood case.
