Description
Skendleby Thorpe Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid 17th century, with later alterations from the late 17th century, 18th century, and 19th century. It is constructed of red brick and features a plain tile roof. The building has a left gable and two ridge stacks made of red brick, and it is set on a moulded brick plinth. There is a first floor band and a lintel band above the single right bay.
The farmhouse is two storeys high and has five bays, with the right single bay projecting and gabled, rising to two storeys plus an attic. A 19th-century red brick and pantile porch has dentil eaves, decorative bargeboards, a part-glazed door, and a Tudor style hood mould. Each side wall of the porch has a single pointed arched light. The windows include single glazing bar sashes on either side, a small glazing bar sash further left, and a tripartite glazing bar sash further right. Above these are two glazing bar sashes and a similar tripartite sash in the gabled bay.
At the rear, there is a similar projecting single bay to the left, with remains of a first floor band and a rendered plinth. To the right, there is an 18th-century dairy with a coped gable and tumbled brickwork, featuring a single glazing bar sash and a small planked opening above. The late 17th-century lean-to stair turret is located further left, with a single small pointed arched light in its side wall. There are two doorways that are now partially blocked; the right has a small glazing bar sash, while the left has a larger similar sash. On the far left in the projecting bay is a doorway, with a single Yorkshire sash above it and a blocked window opening to the left, both with a Tudor style hood mould. To the right is another glazing bar Yorkshire sash, and in the attic, there is a single glazing bar Yorkshire sash with the remains of a Tudor style hood mould.
Inside, the farmhouse features a 17th-century moulded beam, along with 17th-century and 18th-century panelled doors, some of which have H-L hinges and 18th-century moulded architraves.
