Description

Adamson's Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dated 1620 internally and recently renovated. It is built of handmade brick, painted white, with a tiled roof featuring projecting boarded eaves. The structure has a four-bay plan, with a baffle-entry to the second bay and a former stable, now a garage, in the fourth bay. The building is one and a half storeys tall, with a board door aligned with a ridge chimney to the left of the junction of the second and third bays. To the left, there is a square casement window and a smaller square window in the first bay, both breaking the remains of old labels. A square dormer breaks the eaves of the second bay. To the right, under a slightly lower roof, is a single-storey section that includes a square window in the third bay and a garage door in the fourth bay.

At the rear, there are remains of labels above a fire window in the second bay, and in each of the main bays, which are interrupted by two square windows. There is also a door and a horizontal rectangular window in the third bay. Inside, there is a doorway from the house part in the second bay leading to a former buttery in the first bay, which has a flat wooden lintel that is nicked in the center and inscribed "WA 1620." The timber-framed partition wall between the first and second bays is finished as a collar truss with angle struts, and the tie-beam is broken by an inserted door. Curved windbraces connect the principals to the upper of two pairs of slender purlins. The gable wall at the south end shows similar windbracing to a timber frame, with the collar and one principal exposed.
