Description
Highnam Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 18th century. It features a timber-frame structure with brick infill, a slate roof, and external brick end stacks, with the left stack resting on a large rubble base. The building consists of three bays and is two storeys high, with three evenly spaced windows that were boarded over at the time of re-survey in February 1985. There is a central entry with a gabled porch supported by two detached wooden pillars. At the rear left, there is a 19th-century extension that includes a deep cellar. The farmhouse is part of a close upland farm group alongside an adjacent barn and cow shelter.
