Description
Castle Farmhouse is a house built in the early 19th century with later alterations. It features coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof. The main house, which is to the right, has three bays and is two storeys high, with five first-floor windows and a canted central bay. The main house has quoins and round arches on each face of the canted bay, which serves as a porch. This porch contains a six-fielded-panel door with a divided overlight, and to the left, there is a 16-pane sash window. Above the arches, there is a band. The outer bays have 16-pane sashes, while the first floor has tall sashes with glazing bars in the central section and 16-pane sashes in the outer bays, all resting on a continuous sill band. Flat stone arches are present throughout. The roof is hipped with a central depression over the canted bay, which was previously castellated, and there is a half-hipped roof with stacks rising through the rear pitch of the main range.
The service wing, located to the left, is a single storey with attics and features three tripartite sashes in brick surrounds, along with two sash dormers in the attics. The roof of the service wing is hipped to the left and has a ridge stack. The farmhouse was built as an eyecatcher for Hotham Hall.
