Description
Higher Dinting Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1728, with some alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed from narrow coursed millstone grit, featuring tooled stone dressings and a stone slate roof with coped gables and kneelers. The building has two stone stacks with watertabling.
The farmhouse has a three-unit baffle entry plan, with the service areas located at the rear, which has been extended later. It stands two storeys high and includes quoins. The street-facing side has an irregular facade with four windows. The main doorway is off-centre to the right and features a 20th-century door with a chamfered surround and an ornately carved lintel inscribed with 'W/I D/ 17 28' within a shaped medallion. To the left of the doorway is an inscribed roundel containing a star, and to the right is another roundel with the initials SW. There are two four-light casement windows with chamfered surrounds and surviving central mullions to the left of the doorway, and a single doorway with a 20th-century glazed door and chamfered surround. Above, there are two similar, slightly smaller windows to the left, and to the right, a two-light casement window in a flush ashlar surround, along with a single four-light casement in a chamfered surround that also retains its central mullion. All windows have 20th-century casements.
The left return of the building is blank, but it features a two-light chamfered mullion window in the outshut. The right return has a doorway in a squared surround and a single window above. The rear of the farmhouse includes a two-storey added outshut. Inside, the farmhouse retains original beams on the ground floor.
