Description

Nook Farmhouse and the attached barn are a Grade II listed building located off Nook Lane in Wadsworth. The farmhouse, which is currently empty, dates from the mid-18th century and is connected to an earlier cottage from the late 17th century that is now in ruins. The barn, attached to the other end of the farmhouse, was built in the early 19th century.

The barn features large dressed stone, thin coursed rubble on the house, and a stone slate roof. It has quoins, a semi-circular arched cart entry, and mistal doorways on either side, along with a small window on one side. The farmhouse has a square window to the left of the doorway with tie-stone jambs, a 3-light flat faced mullioned window above, and a doorway with monolithic jambs to the left of the 3-light window with a 4-light window above it. An earlier attached cell has a 2-light chamfered mullioned window that is missing its mullion. The right-hand return wall features quoined angles and a 9-light chamfered mullioned window that lacks all its mullions but retains two king mullions, with a 3-light flat faced mullioned window above on the first floor. There are two stacks present.
