Description
Pitchford Farmhouse is a mid-17th century farmhouse that was partly remodeled and extended in the mid-19th century. The building features a timber frame that has been partly refaced or rebuilt using coursed red sandstone rubble and painted brick, with plain tile roofs. It has a T-plan layout, with a baffle-entry plan consisting of two framed bays and an altered and extended cross-wing to the south. The farmhouse is one storey and attic on the main part and two storeys on the cross-wing.
The structure includes a central brick ridge stack and an external brick end stack on the right side, along with a brick ridge stack and two external brick end stacks on the left-hand cross-wing and its additions. On the first floor, there is a two-light wooden casement window to the left, while the ground floor features two 20th-century two-light casements to the right. There is a lean-to porch at the left angle and a six-panelled door, with the top four panels glazed, on the left-hand return front.
The mid-19th century addition to the left consists of two bays with horned glazing bar sashes. At the rear of the main range, there is a lean-to addition and a gabled eaves dormer, along with exposed light timber framing in the angle of the cross-wing. Inside the main range, the left-hand ground-floor room has a chamfered cross-beamed ceiling, a large open fireplace with a renewed lintel, and 17th-century boarded doors with strap hinges.
