Home Farmhouse

Home Farmhouse is a house that was formerly used as a laundry for Donington Hall. It dates from the early 19th century and features whitewashed roughcast walls with hipped roofs covered in 20th-century tiles. The building has a central two-storey, two-bay section flanked by single-storey, three-bay side wings. The eaves are flat. The central part of the house includes four-pane sash windows and a rear door. The side wings have narrow arcaded passages at the front, each with wide segmental arches. The left arches are supported by brick footings with stone coping in between. The rear wall of the left passage has a two-light wooden casement window and two flush-panelled doors, one of which has a fanlight above. The right wing features later 19th-century and 20th-century casements and French doors. The right wing was formerly used for washing, while the left wing was used for ironing.
