Description
Gilmorton Farmhouse, dating from the early to mid 19th century, is a farmhouse with painted render and a horizontally rusticated ground floor. It features a dentilled cillband below the first floor and a deep wooden eaves cornice supported by paired brackets, all topped by a concrete pantiled roof with red brick end stacks. The building has three storeys and a regular three-window front, with glazing bar sashes set in eared moulded surrounds. The central entrance consists of a half-glazed panelled door with a transom light above, situated in panelled reveals. A Doric columned porch with a heavy entablature hood provides shelter at the entrance. To the left, there is a slightly lower red brick wing that shares a similar eaves cornice and features a single segment-headed casement window on the first floor. The barn located to the south has one 2-light casement window facing the road, while the rear has some additions and windows on the first floor.
