Description
Moor Court is a farmhouse that dates back to the 17th century, with alterations and extensions made during the 18th century and mid-19th century. The roofs were also altered in the mid-19th century. The building is timber-framed with brick infill and a sandstone plinth, topped with part-hipped tiled roofs. It has an irregular plan, originally designed in an L-shape and aligned southwest to northeast, facing southeast. There is a wing extending to the northwest, along with additions to the northeast and southwest.
The original house features three framed bays, with a former gable end of a cross-wing to the right and an additional bay to the right. To the left, there is a slightly set-back addition with three framed bays that adjoins late 19th-century hop kilns, which are not of special architectural interest. The farmhouse has a main central axial stack and an end stack to the northeast, as well as a lateral stack with a bread oven to the left of the southeast front. The entrance is located toward the center of the southeast front.
The building is two storeys high. On the southeast front, there are two 2-light wood mullioned windows below the eaves to the left of the stack, and a pair of 2-light casement windows in a half-dormer to the right, along with a small 3-light window below the eaves and two further 2-light windows to the right. On the ground floor, there is a 2-light casement window to the left of the stack, another 2-light window and a bay window to the left, and two 2-light casement windows to the right of the doorway, which has a canopy supported on brackets and a panelled door. The central stack features three conjoined star-plan shafts from the 19th century. The irregular framing of the building appears largely complete, with four square panels from the sill to the wall-plate and V-struts in the rear gable of the cross-wing.
