Description

Barwell House Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse with an attached stable wing. The farmhouse is constructed of red brick with painted rusticated quoins, black platbands, and window dressings. It has a low-pitched hipped slate roof with brick end stacks. The building is three storeys high, featuring a shallow central projection and a modillion eaves cornice. The main facade has a regular three-window arrangement; the first and second floors have glazing bar sashes, the latter set in shallow surrounds. Ground-floor sashes are within gauged head surrounds incorporating decorated key blocks. A Doric columned doorcase with a triglyph frieze and triangular pediment frames a half-glazed panelled door set within rusticated reveals. A reeded head and cornice adorn the central first-floor window.

Inside, the sitting room has raised and fielded dado panelling and a heavy acanthus and modillion cornice. A marble fireplace, with black and brown marble and a classical-type mantel, is also present. The staircase is two storeys high with voluted tread ends, stick balusters, and a thin ramped rail. A further early 19th-century marble fireplace is found in the second sitting room, along with a moulded cornice.

The attached stable wing to the rear is of red brick with a modillion cornice to a tiled roof. It is one storey and loft with irregular openings: three first-floor windows, three ground-floor windows, and three doorways, with a larger opening to the left. The roof extends over a throughway to the right.
