Description

The Brades Farmhouse, dating from the mid-18th century, is a farmhouse with later additions and alterations. It is constructed of red brick and features machine tile roofs with raised verges. The building is designed in a three-unit baffle-entry style, with a gabled range at the rear that creates a T-plan. There is a contemporary two-storey outshut at the left angle. The farmhouse has two storeys and a gable-lit attic, comprising three bays.

On the exterior, there are late 19th-century three-light segmental-headed mullioned and transomed casements flanking a central mid-19th-century gabled brick porch that contains a four-panel door, with the top panels now glazed. A central red brick stack, which has been rebuilt in late 19th-century brick, is present, along with an integral end stack on the rear gable.

Attached to the right corner is an 18th-century wall made of red brick with sandstone coping, which serves as a boundary between the house and the farmyard. The interior has not been inspected, but it is reported to feature chamfered beams and joists in the ground and first-floor rooms. There are 20th-century roughcast additions to the right and rear that are not of special architectural interest.
