Description

Shottlegate Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1855, constructed from ashlar gritstone with flush quoins. It features a broad band below a coved eaves, massive side walls, and intermediate ashlar ridge stacks topped by a hipped slated roof. The main range is located at the front, with two parallel ranges at the rear.

On the south elevation of the main range, the building is two storeys high with three bays. The central bay is advanced and forms an entrance porch. This gable has coped gables and moulded kneelers, supported by fluted octagonal columns, with an entablature and cornice above. The first floor features a mullioned and transomed window with three lights. Above this window, there is a smaller opening in the gable apex, with a lintel that bears the date 1855.

The central doorway is enclosed by a porch with a shallow arched head, a chamfered surround, and a six-panelled door, where the upper four panels are glazed. On either side of the doorway at ground floor level are canted bays with shallow parapets and chamfered mullion and transom windows, all fitted with glazing bar casements. Above these bays are 3-light mullion and transom openings. The rear has a four-bay, two-storey parallel range with 2-light chamfer mullioned windows throughout.
