Description
Poplar Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse constructed from deeply-coursed dressed sandstone, topped with a Welsh slate roof. The building has three storeys and is arranged in a 1:1:1 bay configuration, with a wing at the rear left of the centre and a lower addition at the right end. The central bay, which is quoined, projects forward and features a pediment. A 20th-century porch encloses a central six-panel door set within a square-faced surround that includes a pulvinated frieze and cornice. The flanking windows have renewed casements in raised, square-faced surrounds with projecting sills. The first-floor windows also have similar surrounds, all fitted with four-pane sashes. The second-floor windows are shorter, with the central bay featuring a four-pane sash, while bays one and three have eight-pane sashes. The building is topped with a coped pediment that has a circular plaque in the tympanum, and it features shaped kneelers and ashlar gable copings. The end stacks are renewed brick with cornices. The addition to the right has a door on the left side and no front windows, along with shaped kneelers and gable copings on the right, which also has an end stack.
