Description

Westhill Farmhouse is a house from the later 18th century, constructed of brick with a plain tiled roof. It stands two storeys high and features two attic windows in the gable facing the road. The original window arrangement was two windows, one window, and two windows, but it has been altered to two windows, one window, and one window. The front of the house is rendered, with the centre projecting slightly. The central upper window is a 6/6 sash, accompanied by sidelights. Below this, there is a door that has a 20th-century porch. The house also has 20th-century renewed sash-type windows. At the rear, there is a two-storey wing of lesser interest, which is also made of brick, has a plain tiled roof, and is partly rendered.
