Description
Plough Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 16th to 17th century and has undergone later alterations. It features a timber-frame construction with plaster infill, partly rendered, and is set on a high plinth. The building has a thatched roof and a diagonal brick stack, with a rectangular plan oriented north to south.
The east elevation includes three windows: two late 19th-century casements with two lights, located in half-dormers with eyebrow arches, positioned in the center and to the right. The ground floor has a three-light casement on the left side and a two-light casement on each side of an early 19th-century ledged door, which is roughly central and located under a gabled porch. The frame of the farmhouse is irregular, featuring four square panels from the cill to the wall-plate on the left side and three panels on the center and right sides.
To the right of the main structure, there is a single-storey extension that combines exposed timber-framing and weatherboarding, topped with a corrugated iron roof. The interior has not been inspected.
