Description
Wood Farmhouse and the adjoining barns date from the mid-18th century but have been largely rebuilt, featuring an early 19th-century facade and 19th-century barns, one dating from 1896. The structure is made of ashlar and hammer-dressed stone with a graduated stone slate roof. It has a double-depth central-entrance plan with two storeys and barns on either side. The facade is symmetrical, with a projecting plinth, raised quoins, square eaves gutter brackets, and gable chimney stacks.
The central door features a fanlight, a keystone, an archivolt, and an enriched panel above a moulded hood. There are four ground floor and five first floor windows with square-cut surrounds, continuous sill bands, and 20th-century casements. The window above the door has an enriched lintel and cornice, and there is a semi-circular-headed gable window. The rear, which has been largely rebuilt in the 20th century, includes two and three-light double-chamfered cavetto-moulded mullion windows, some of which are blocked. The barns on each side have segmental and elliptical-arched cart entries. A datestone from 1773 has been reused from elsewhere.
