Description

South Farm is a farmhouse that was originally the service wing of Averham Park, built around 1720. It features significant additions from the 19th and 20th centuries on the south and west sides. The building was commissioned by Robert Sutton, Lord Lexington. Constructed from brick, it has hipped and gabled roofs covered with pantiles and plain tiles. The farmhouse is two storeys high and has a C-plan layout with six bays.

The main north front displays six glazing bar sash windows, which are 20th century, and above these are six oval openings with keystones, flanked by single blank panels. The east end includes a 19th-century addition on the left, which has two 20th-century flat-roofed extensions. To the left, there is a casement window flanked by single French doors, and to the right, a glazing bar sash with a segmental head. Above, on the left, there are four casement windows and a glazed door, while to the right, there is another glazing bar sash.

A 20th-century addition on the west side is two storeys high and has two bays, but it is not of special interest. Inside, there are remains of a softwood roof with tenoned purlins. The cellar at the east end was formerly connected by a tunnel to Averham Park.
