Description
Heversham House Farmhouse is a house built in 1698. It is constructed of sandstone rubble and has a slate roof, with two storeys. A drip course rises over the door lintel. The windows are rebated and chamfered, featuring mullions. On either side of the door, there are windows that were originally four lights, but only one mullion remains. To the far left, there is a one-light fire window that is now blocked, and above it, there is a similar blocked window on the first floor. The other first-floor windows consist of a mix of three lights, two lights, and three lights again. The door has a chamfered surround and a battlemented lintel inscribed with 'JSD 1698'. The gables feature chimneys and copings with kneelers. The right-hand (east) gable wall has two one-light chamfered attic windows. At the rear, there is a stair turret with mullioned windows. Inside, the ground floor has cased axial main joists, and in the attic, there are two trusses with curved principals, one of which is made from re-used crucks.
