Description
Norrishill Farmhouse is a mid-19th century building of red brick, with a gabled design and a tiled roof, and panelled chimneys. It has two storeys and originally three windows, though a southern bay is advanced beneath the main gable. The windows are early 19th-century casements. All of the first-floor windows, except for two located on the northern side, have cambered head linings. A centrally placed gabled porch features wooden Gothick arches on either side.
