Description

Old Woodhouse Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century. It features a render over a timber frame and has a gabled roof covered with old plain tiles, along with 19th century brick stacks at the ridge and left end. The building has a three-unit plan and is two storeys high, with a three-window range. There are segmental and flat rendered arches over late 19th century and early 20th century horned six-pane sash windows on the ground floor, and three-light casements on the first floor. To the right, there are mid-19th century rendered brick outshuts with a 20th century door, as well as a rear extension.

Inside, the farmhouse features an exposed timber frame with short knee bracing on the wall posts. The roof has a three-bay queen-post design with trenched purlins and straight wind bracing. A timber-framed partition separates the central bay from the left-hand bay, and the central room includes a stop-chamfered beam.
