Description

Church Farmhouse, which now serves as a house, church, and Sunday school, dates back to 1670, as indicated by the inscription 'RH: SH, 1670'. Part of the building was converted for church and Sunday school use in 1844. It is constructed from dressed stone with stone slate roofs and has two storeys.

The house section, located on the right, features five first-floor windows and a gable entry. It has a chamfered plinth and round-headed-light double-chamfered windows on the ground floor arranged in groups of three, four, three, and three lights, while the first floor has three, three, three, two, and one light windows. A drip mould runs across the chapel and the right gable. The building has ashlar coping and a central stack with tabling to the right, along with a similar stack at the ridge.

The chapel on the left is taller and has four first-floor windows. It features a chamfered quoined doorway to the left, with two three-light windows on the ground floor, similar to the house, and four transomed windows above with two, two, three, and three lights. The chapel also has ashlar coping and a bellcote on the left gable.

On the right return, there is an entrance at the base of the stack, which serves as a porch. This porch has a chamfered quoined doorway with a decorated lintel and a datestone above. Inside the porch are benches and an inner nail-studded board door set in a chamfered quoined surround. To the left of the stack are a two-light and a one-light window, with similar windows above and in the gable, which is blind. The right side of the stack projects forward and features drip moulds, one- and two-light windows on the ground floor, a three-light window on the first floor, and two blind one-light windows above.

At the rear, there are double-chamfered mullion windows, some of which have had their mullions removed. The chapel has two cross-windows.

Inside the house, there is a basket-arched fireplace with voussoirs, massive chamfered beams and joists, and chamfered stone doorways.
