Description

Poplar Farmhouse is a mid-18th century farmhouse constructed from deeply-coursed, squared sandstone, with a stone slate roof that has been renewed with 20th-century tiles at the rear. The building features renewed brick stacks and stands two storeys tall, with three windows on the first floor. It has large quoins and a central part-glazed door set within a square-faced surround, all enclosed by a 20th-century glazed porch. On either side of the door are three-light square-faced mullion windows with projecting sills, which have renewed wooden casements with glazing bars. There is a band at the first floor level, with similar three-light windows flanking a central two-light window above. The gable ends have copings and brick stacks. The rear of the farmhouse includes flat-roofed extensions that are not of special interest.
