Lee New Farmhouse

Lee New Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with later additions and alterations. It features a timber frame with painted brick infill, and the additions are painted black and white to imitate a timber frame. The building has a slate roof and follows a three-unit baffle-entry plan, consisting of one storey and an attic. The framing includes rectangular panels with three sections from the cill to the wall-plate, supported by short straight braces. The left and right sides of the porch on the ground floor have been rebuilt in brick and painted black and white. There are 19th-century casement windows, with two on the left and one on the right of the porch, plus one window directly below the eaves above the left window. The house has three 19th-century raking eaves dormers. A roughly central gabled brick porch features a six-panel door and a semi-circular fanlight, with a prominent red brick ridge stack immediately to the right, which has been rebuilt in 19th-century brick. There are also integral end stacks on the left and right. The interior could not be inspected during the resurvey in February 1987, but it is likely to be of interest. A 20th-century lean-to attached to the right gable end extends around to form a twin-gabled range at the rear, which is not considered to have special architectural interest.
