Description
Wogden's Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid to late 17th century, with alterations and enlargements made in the late 18th century. It is constructed from coursed sandstone rubble with quoins and features a stone slate roof with brick gable chimneys. The building has a two-bay end-baffle-entry plan and a very large front outshut.
It stands two storeys tall, with the original front on the north side featuring a doorway at the left end, which has a straight dripstone over the lintel. To the right of the door, there are the remains of a single round-headed light, and above it, an inserted two-light casement. The remainder of the front is obscured by a deep outshut addition under a catslide roof, which has a very low front wall containing a three-light casement and a two-light sliding sash with glazing bars.
The right gable wall, partly covered by a damaged wooden lean-to, shows remains of blocked chamfered mullion windows with hoodmoulds, including two and three lights at the ground floor, three and one at the first floor, and two lights in the attic. The rear wall has been altered to create a symmetrical facade, featuring an inserted central door under a glazed lean-to porch, flanked by two windows at the ground floor and three above, all of which are two-light casements with large run-out stone heads and sills.
Inside, the large housepart inglenook has a massive moulded stone heck with a crudely moulded cap, a straight bressummer with a small chamfer, and a 19th-century iron oven-and-boiler range. There are two large beams with stopped quarter-round moulding, and a similar beam in the parlour. The roof consists of two collar trusses with windbracing and two pairs of trenched overlapped purlins, with wattle-and-daub infill in the second truss.
