Description
Kingarth Farmhouse is a house from the late 18th century, constructed of red brick with a Swithland slate roof and featuring two brick ridge stacks. The gable faces the yard, which is located to the left. The building has brick bands and dentilled eaves. It stands three storeys tall and has three 2-light casement windows with cambered lintels. The first-floor windows include top lights and a small round-arched 1-light window on the center left.
On the ground floor, from left to right, there is a 2-light window, a centre-opening 3-light window, and a pair of 6-panelled doors set within an open lean-to porch. To the right, there is a 2-light window on each floor. The rear of the house features additional 2-light windows and a two-storey extension. This extension includes a wooden doorcase with a flat bracketed canopy, a door, and an overlight, with the glazing bars arranged in a diamond pattern. There is also a 6/6 sash window on both floors of the extension.
