Description

Wood House Farmhouse is a farmhouse likely built in the mid-18th century and has been altered over time. It features pebble-dashed render on brick and a stone slate roof. The building has a double-depth, double-fronted plan with a projecting porch. It stands two storeys high with attics and has a symmetrical facade with three windows on each floor. The full-height, two-storey porch includes a round-headed doorway with an open-pedimented architrave and a fanlight with V-glazing bars. Above the porch, there is a tall 12-pane top-hung casement window, and on either side, there are two windows on each floor, all now 16-pane top-hung casements with thin sills and rectangular lintels. The farmhouse has side-wall chimneys on the front slope, with the right chimney being extruded. The left gable wall features a small gabled porch with a round-headed arch, one window on each floor behind it, and a pair of small attic windows. Inside, there is a 17th-century chamfered beam in the rear left room and a 19th-century staircase with stick balusters. The farmhouse forms a group with a barn located approximately 15 meters to the south.
