Description
Home Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 17th century, with later alterations and additions. It is constructed of sandstone rubble and brick, featuring hipped tiled and corrugated iron roofs, along with diagonal brick stacks. The building has an L-plan layout, with one arm extending to the north-north-east and the other to the east-south-east. It is one storey high with an attic.
The south elevation includes three windows, which are early 20th-century gabled dormers with 2-light casements. Below these dormers are three glazing bar sash windows. To the left of centre is a late 20th-century glazed porch that conceals a late 17th-century or early 18th-century door with six panels. There is also a small lean-to porch made of breeze blocks on the right side. To the left, there is a late 18th-century to early 19th-century brick catslide lean-to that surrounds a former end stack.
On the west elevation, above the lean-to, are two gabled dormers with casements, likely from the 18th century, which are glazed with quarries. Attached to the left is a brick granary and stable block from the mid-19th century. Inside, the south range features pegged king-post trusses. The western extension, which has a catslide roof, consists of five bays and half-trusses, each with one vertical post tied back to the bottom of each principal. The granary and stable block contains mid-19th-century king-posts that support raking struts to the principals.
Immediately to the east of Home Farmhouse is the site of Allensmore Court, which was demolished around 1957. This site represented an unusually close relationship between a small country house and its home farm.
