Description

Woodhouse Farmhouse is a farmhouse built between 1754 and 1756 by William Baker for Charles Pigot. It is constructed of red brick and features a pyramidal plain tile roof. The building has a square plan measuring three bays by three bays and is designed in the Gothick style. It stands two storeys tall with an attic above a basement. The south side has a plinth and a dentil brick eaves cornice. At the apex of the roof is a central brick stack. The façade is arranged in a 1:1:1 bay pattern with glazing bar sash windows that have painted stone sills and painted segmental heads.

The central break of the façade includes a stepped battlemented parapet and a Gothick attic window with Y-tracery. The main entrance features a door with six raised and fielded panels, panelled reveals and soffit, a moulded impost band, and a fanlight with intersecting Gothick tracery. The doorcase consists of reeded pilaster strips that support sections of an entablature with paterae in the frieze and an open triangular pediment with a dentil cornice. The side and rear elevations have some blind windows and a central break with a battlemented parapet and a Gothick attic window.

At the rear, there is a two-storey service wing that has a dentil brick eaves cornice, a crow-stepped gable end, a brick ridge stack, and an integral brick end stack. Inside, the farmhouse contains four rooms with corner fireplaces, and the central stack is divided by a staircase. The interior is plain, with panelled window reveals.
