Description
Kershaw Hey Farmhouse is a house dating from the early to mid-18th century. It is constructed from hammer-dressed and watershot stone, topped with slate and graduated stone slate roofs. The building consists of a one-bay block that is two storeys high, which is adjoined to a slightly later two-bay block that rises to three storeys and features a rear wing. Each block is two rooms deep.
The first bay includes a ground floor window with six lights, featuring a recessed flat-faced stone mullion design, which has a king mullion and two removed mullions. The first floor has a three-light flat-faced window. The three-storey section has a projecting plinth and displays recessed chamfered mullion windows with four lights on the lower floor and two or three lights on the upper floor, with several mullions removed and one light blocked. The farmhouse has brick gable stacks and a square-cut stone door surround on the left gable.
