Nuthill Farmhouse

Nuthill Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1825, with restorations completed in 1985-1986 to its front and interior. It is constructed of yellow brick in Flemish bond and features a Welsh slate roof. The building has an L-shaped plan, consisting of a two-room central entrance hall on the south-west front and a three-room wing to the rear left. It stands two storeys tall and has five symmetrical bays.

At the front, there is a stucco plinth with the date inscribed at the left angle. The entrance features a step leading to a projecting flat-roofed Doric porch, which has fluted columns supporting an entablature with a plain frieze, moulded cornice, and hood. Fluted pilasters flank a half-glazed panelled door with a radial fanlight in a panelled reveal. The windows are 12-pane sashes with sills and channelled and keyed wedge lintels. There is an ashlar first-floor sill band, and 20th-century brickwork between the first and second bays indicates the position of a former late 19th-century bay window. The eaves board is plain, supported by ornate cast-iron brackets that carry the gutter, and the roof is hipped with end stacks.

The left return of the building has four bays with similar windows, although the fourth bay features painted dummies. Inside, the farmhouse has a restored open well cantilevered staircase with a wreathed handrail, column balusters, and newel. The main ground-floor rooms retain original plaster cornices, ribbed, panelled or fluted architraves around doors and windows, with those in the hall and ground floor right featuring carved rosettes at the angles. Beaded-panel window shutters are present, and the sash windows are hung on chains.
