Description

The Old Farmhouse is an 18th-century house constructed of coursed rubble stone with quoins and features a 20th-century tile roof with end stacks. The gables are stone-coped, and the gable facing the front is to the right. The house is 1½ storeys high and has three 3-light dormers with barge boards. Below these dormers is a 3-light window and a long 20th-century flat-roofed extension that covers the original central door frame and a 3-light window. The front also includes various doors and windows. On the right end, there is a 1½ storey extension with a 3-light and a 2-light dormer above it. At the rear, there is an outshut with a catslide roof and a beehive oven.
