Description

Old Woodlands is a farmhouse and public house, now a house, dating from the 17th century, with alterations from the mid-18th century, mid-19th century, and late 20th century. The building is constructed from sandstone rubble and features two-span hipped machine tiled roofs along with large rubble end chimneys. The left end chimney has three diagonal brick shafts, while the right end chimney has tiled offsets and a single brick stack.

The house is two storeys high, with an attic and a cellar that is now blocked. It has three bays on the north front elevation, where the windows are 19th-century casements. There is a 3-light and a 2-light window on the ground floor, along with two 2-light windows on the first floor. To the right on the ground floor, there is a blocked former window. The central entrance features a 20th-century panelled door with a narrow transom light above.

On the east elevation, there are two original mullion and transom windows, which are moulded internally, located on the first floor. A 20th-century single-storey addition is attached to the west end, which includes a large 5-light casement window on its north front.

Inside, there is a timber-framed wall with rendered infill between the north and south ranges, and large fireplaces in the main ground floor rooms. A stone well is now incorporated into the southwest of the building. It is likely that the eastern part of the building is largely original, while the western half has been largely remodelled.
