Description
Watchley Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse that has been altered and has a later parallel range added to the rear. It is constructed from rubble limestone and has a Welsh slate roof. The building has two storeys and features three windows on the first floor, with large quoins at the corners. The door is located to the left of centre, where a former three-light mullioned window opening was. All windows are three-light horizontally-sliding sashes with glazing bars. The windows immediately to the right of the door are in later openings, while the outer windows on each floor are in altered double-chamfered mullioned window openings. There is a blocked original window above the door that retains one mullion. The gable features shaped kneelers and chamfered copings. Brick stacks are present at the ends, and there is a ridge stack to the right of centre, likely above the original doorway.
Inside, the central room has an inglenook fireplace with chamfered voussoirs forming a triangular arch and a round-arched doorhead to the left. The ground-floor room to the right contains a bressumer beam and a stone staircase in the front-right corner. The ground floor has chamfer-stopped transverse beams, and similar tie beams are exposed on the first floor.
