Southfield House

Southfield House is a farmhouse built in the early to mid 19th century. It is constructed from squared limestone with tooled ashlar dressings, featuring yellow brick stacks and a Welsh slate roof, along with a rendered porch. The building has a double-depth plan with a two-room central entrance hall on the south front and a single-room wing to the rear right. It stands two storeys high and has three symmetrical bays, with quoins at the corners.

The porch is flat-roofed and projects outward, supported by pilasters that hold a plain entablature with a hood. Steps lead up to a six-panel door, which has four glazed panels above two fielded panels, topped by a cornice and an overlight with geometric glazing set in a plain reveal and architrave. The windows are slightly recessed 12-pane sashes in ashlar surrounds, featuring cambered wedge lintels and sills. The eaves are plain wooden boards with a bracketed wooden gutter. The roof is a double-span hipped design with two axial stacks at the rear.

The left and right returns of the house have sashes in similar ashlar surrounds, with cambered wedge lintels on the front section and tooled flat arches on the rear. Inside, the house retains its original open-well staircase, which has a ramped and wreathed handrail and plain balusters. The front rooms feature moulded cornices, and there are panelled doors set in architraves.
