Description
Peacock Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1751, with later alterations. It features an ironstone facade and west gable, while the rest of the building is made of brick. The front has a pantiled roof, while the rear is covered with concrete tiles from the 20th century. The farmhouse has two storeys and is arranged in three bays. A central panelled door is located behind a timber trellis porch. The windows are casements that were inserted in 1934. A dentil eaves cornice runs below the gabled roof, and there are internal gable-end stacks.
