Description
Vane Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates mainly from the 18th century, although it is not entirely from a single build. The structure is made of coursed ironstone rubble and features a Welsh slate roof. It is two storeys high. The northwest elevation has three bays, with a centrally placed doorway that has a chamfered timber lintel. To the right of the doorway is a 3-light casement window, also with a chamfered timber lintel. There are three upper 2-light casement windows, two of which have chamfered lintels, while the right-hand window has been renewed. The bay to the left of the doorway appears to be a separate build, possibly a later addition, and features a single 2-light casement window with a flat timber lintel on each floor, although these windows are not aligned with those in the right-hand part of the house. There is a lower two-storey brick bay to the left. At the rear, separate builds are also visible, with the southwestern section including a projecting wing made of ironstone on the ground floor and brick above. The northeastern bay is constructed entirely of ironstone and is three storeys high. The ground floor has original casement windows with chamfered timber lintels, while most others have been renewed, except for one second-floor window in the northeastern bay, which is a 19th-century casement with iron glazing bars. There is also an additional later 19th-century brick wing to the right.
