Description
Wharf Farm House is an early 19th-century farmhouse constructed of red brick with a concrete pantile roof. The building features two red brick gable stacks and has dentil eaves. It is two storeys high and consists of three bays. The central entrance is a trellis and slate gabled porch that leads to an inner door with glazing bars. On either side of the porch are single sash windows, and above are three similar sash windows, with the central one being smaller. To the right of the main house is a single-storey wing that has a hipped pantile roof, a single red brick stack at the front, and also features dentil eaves. At the rear, there is a two-storey, two-bay wing made of red brick and pantiles, along with a further single-storey, single-bay extension that is now used as a garage.
