Description

Newton Park Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse situated on Farm Lane, in the parish of Newton Solney. The building is constructed of rendered brick with a Welsh slate roof, featuring two ridge stacks and a gable stack on the lower west range. It is two storeys high and presents a south elevation of four bays. The main doorway is topped by a wedge lintel and features a panelled door with a semi-circular overlight. To the right of the door is a glazing bar sash window, also beneath a wedge lintel, and to the left a three-light casement window with a wedge lintel. Further glazing bar sash windows are set under wedge lintels along the south elevation. A lower bay to the left of the south elevation contains a three-light casement window on the ground floor and a two-light window above, both under wedge lintels. The east elevation features two glazing bar sash windows to both ground and first floors, with a three-light casement window in the gable, positioned between the lower windows and all set under wedge lintels. The interior includes an open string stick baluster staircase with carved tread ends. Local tradition states that the house was built as a shooting lodge for the Earl of Chesterfield.
