Description

The Court House is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 17th century, with later alterations. It is constructed of timber-frame and sandstone rubble, topped with a hipped tiled roof and brick stacks. The building has an irregular plan, with the garden front facing southeast. It stands two storeys tall. The southeast elevation features four windows, with a gable wing on the left side. The right part of the elevation includes two early 20th-century casement windows, each with two lights, one positioned to the left and one in the center, both set in render. To the right, there is a two-light steel mid-20th-century casement window on sandstone rubble. The entrance is located in the right return of the gable wing and features a ledged mid-19th-century door. The northeast side of the building displays some exposed framing. Inside, the interior includes wall-framing and deeply chamfered ceiling beams that form panels in the room at the southwest end of the longest range.
