Description

Riding Farmhouse is a 17th-century traditional stone building, which has been significantly altered over time. The exterior is mostly rendered, and it features a stone roof. The central section is single-storeyed and includes a mullioned and transomed window along with two plain doorways. Flanking this are two-storeyed gabled cross wings, which have also undergone considerable changes, particularly the eastern wing that is partly from the 19th century. The rear of the building is irregular and has simple late mullioned windows.
