Description

Wilne Farmhouse is a timber-framed and brick farmhouse, dating from the 16th century, with significant alterations in the early 18th and early 19th centuries, and later additions and changes in the late 19th and 20th centuries. The construction combines close-studded timber framing with red brick, featuring brick and stone dressings. It has a steeply pitched plain tile roof with two large brick ridge stacks and a sawtooth eaves band to its south elevation. The building is arranged as a single storey plus attics to the eastern range, and two storeys to the southern range. It has an irregular plan, originally with a lobby entrance plan, comprising a three-bay south range and a two-bay east range.

The south front has a flush door below a bracketed hood, with a glazing bar sash window below a cambered head to the east, and a 3-light, segment-headed horizontal sliding glazing bar sash to the west. To the west of this is a 20th-century brick wall with two 20th-century casement windows. Above, there is a segment-headed 2-light horizontal sliding sash window roughly above the door to the east, and a 20th-century casement window to the west. The east elevation has a late 19th-century two-storey canted bay window to the south, and an early 18th-century section to the north, featuring a blocked segment-headed doorcase to the south and two segment-headed windows with 20th-century casements to the north. A raking dormer with a similar window is positioned above to the centre. The rear elevation of the south range features an advanced gabled bay to the centre, with brickwork to the ground floor and close-studded timber framing above.

Internally, the farmhouse contains a 17th-century panelled door into this bay, and 17th-century shaped splat balusters to the top of the staircase within the southern range. The eastern range has a narrow straight staircase against a stack and a large inglenook fireplace.
