Description
Slaters Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1683 on the porch, though it is likely older and has been altered. It features roughcast brick painted white and a slate roof. The building has a three-bay baffle-entry plan with a porch aligned with a ridge chimney located at the junction of the first and second bays. There is a rear outshut that extends to the third and part of the second bays, which incorporates a staircase. The farmhouse is two storeys high, with a single-storey gabled porch that has an open entrance under a wooden lintel. Above the entrance is a datestone inscribed in relief with "S T:A 1683," and there is a peephole in the left side wall. Inside the porch, there are wooden side benches and an inner doorway with a chamfered stone surround. Above the lintel, there is a brick label with double-returned ends and two inverted L-shaped extensions that rise from the centre, possibly indicating where a former datestone was located, now broken by the porch roof.
To the left, the first bay has been rebuilt as a garage and store, while to the right, there are two vertical rectangular windows on each floor and coupled chimneys at the right gable. At the rear, the outshut features a four-light brick mullioned window at the ground floor and a similar two-light stairlight with a label. Inside, the housepart and two service rooms have chamfered beams, with the beam in the housepart being scarf-jointed. On the first floor, there are timber-framed partition walls, one large cambered beam with cyma stops in the third bay, and in the second bay, a continuous lateral partition that may have been a smoke bay.
