Description

Lovelady's Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the late 18th century. It is constructed of brick and has a slate roof. The building has two storeys and three bays. The windows and central entrance feature gauged brick cambered arches. The windows are fitted with three-light casements, and there is a narrower blind window above the entrance that has been painted. The farmhouse has a gable-end stack and another stack located at the rear of the ridge. On the right side, there is an extension with a lean-to roof that includes a loading door at the front. This farmhouse is part of a good group with the nearby barn and stables.
