Description
Hill Bark Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1875 by J. Douglas. It features snecked stone with timber framing on the first floor and has a tiled roof. The building is two storeys high and consists of five bays, with the first two bays being one storey. The first bay projects forward under a hipped roof, while the fourth bay has a two-storey gabled porch. The ground floor has single chamfered mullioned windows arranged in a pattern of three, two, and one, with five and four lights. The first floor has four-light small-paned casements, and the third and fifth bays have gabled half-dormers. Above the entrance is a datestone marked "18 S H 76" (Leadward). There are two return lateral stacks. The farmhouse was built as part of a model farm for Hill Bark, and the rear features a small round-ended projecting bay.
