Description

Hornspike Road Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that was partly remodeled and extended in the late 18th century, with later additions and alterations. It features a roughcast timber frame set on a high red brick plinth with a mixed bond, along with red brick additions, and is topped with slate roofs. The original house consists of three framed bays, which were extended by one bay to the right, and the eaves were raised in the late 18th century.

The building has two storeys and a dentilled eaves cornice. Late 19th-century casement windows are found on each floor to the left and right of a central boarded door, which is sheltered by a gabled hood on the 17th-century section. The 18th-century addition includes a cast-iron fixed-light window directly below the eaves and two small 20th-century casements on the ground floor. There are integral end stacks on the 17th-century part and to the right of the 18th-century addition.

At the rear of the 17th-century section, there is a two-storey outshut with its back wall rebuilt in 19th-century brick. Inside, the left ground-floor room features a chamfered cross beam with heavy joists, while the right ground-floor room of the 17th-century part has a chamfered spine beam with ogee stops and heavy joists. A straight-flight staircase is located between the two rooms. The timber frame is visible beneath wallpaper on the first floor, including in the cross walls. The interior also includes plank doors with strap hinges and original floorboards.
