Description
Plumbley Farmhouse is a farmhouse that has been converted into two houses. It dates from the early 17th century and incorporates part of an earlier timber-framed building. There is a mid-19th century addition and some late 20th century alterations. The structure is built of coursed squared stone and ashlar, featuring ashlar dressings and a concrete tile roof with a single ridge and single gable stacks.
The building has quoins and is two storeys high with a three-window range. The front features a two-light chamfered mullioned window with 20th century glazing, and to the right, there is a blocked single window with a chamfered surround under a common label mould. Further to the right, there is an 18-pane stair light. Below this, on the left, is a two-light window with a chamfered surround, and to its right are two small blocked single light windows with drip moulds.
To the right, beyond a boundary wall, there is a set-back two-storey block that has a 16-pane sash window to the right, a 20th century door below it, and another 20-pane sash window to the right, all with plain stone surrounds. The left return features a three-light mullioned window and above it, a similar window with a drip mould. Below this is a 19th century French window. To the left, a set-back rear wing has two two-light glazing bar casements from the 20th century, and below is a fielded six-panel door with a stone cornice, flanked by similar single windows.
Inside, there is an encased bay post in the rear wing.
