Home Farm

Home Farm is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the late 16th century, with alterations and extensions made around 1637, further changes around 1840, and restoration in 1990. The building is constructed of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and features Welsh slate roofs with terracotta ridge tiles. It has coped gables with kneeler finials and three gable stacks, along with a partial plinth and quoins. The structure is two storeys high with attics and is laid out in an L-plan, with a rear wing that is likely the original late 16th-century house, and an early 17th-century addition to the north.

The north garden front includes two windows: a tripartite sash window on the left and a four-light quadrant moulded mullion window on the right, both with hood moulds. Above these are two similar four-light mullion windows, and further up, there are two three-light hipped roof dormer windows. The left return features a small late 16th-century three-light chamfered mullion window, two doors, and various later casement windows. The rear gable wall has pairs of single light windows in chamfered surrounds on each floor, with a continuous hood mould over the attic floor windows.

Inside, the farmhouse has chamfered spine beams throughout, some with label stops. There is a wooden staircase, added around 1840, featuring stick balusters, a moulded handrail, and a turned newel. The ground floor includes a large 17th-century moulded stone fireplace with a four-centred arch, along with two smaller fireplaces that have original moulded stone mantle shelves. The main bedroom has a blocked three-light quadrant moulded mullion window in what was the former rear wall. The dates 1636 and 1637 are etched into the plaster walls.
