Description

Causeway Farmhouse is a house, probably built in the early 18th century, that has been altered over time. It is constructed from watershot sandstone and features a stone slate roof with brick chimney caps. The building has two storeys and four bays. The windows are sashed with glazing bars and have cyma-moulded surrounds, except for the windows in the left-hand bay and the first-floor window of the second bay, which have plain reveals. The ground-floor window of the third bay contains two sashes.

The door located between the second and third bays has a plain stone surround and is currently covered by a porch-like projection that is glazed above a stone base, which does not have an outer doorway. To the right, there is a second door beneath a larger stone and glazed porch, with an additional door in its left-hand return wall. The chimneys are situated on the left-hand gable and between the third and fourth bays. At the rear of the house, there are two 2-light mullioned windows that feature inner cyma moulding and outer chamfer. Inside, the house has boxed axial beams.
