Lutley Farmhouse

Lutley Farmhouse is a farmhouse with a core dating from the late 15th century to early 16th century, featuring alterations and rebuilding from the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. It is timber framed with painted brick infill, partly rebuilt in brick, and has plain tile roofs. The structure is designed in an H-plan, with a former single-bay open hall aligned east-west facing north, an entrance passage at the west end, and flanking cross-wings aligned north-south. The central hall range is one storey and attic, recessed between two-storey gabled wings.

The front wall of the hall range is 18th-century painted brick, featuring a central 20th-century casement window in an 18th-century opening with a segmental head, and a central mid-20th-century flat-roofed dormer. There is a 20th-century lean-to porch to the right with a glazed door. The left wing, dating from the late 17th century, has three square panels at the eaves, long straight tension braces, heavily jowelled corner posts, and a queen strut roof truss, with the roof level raised in the 19th century. The right wing, from the 17th century, has a ground floor rebuilt in brick, while the first floor features three square panels at the eaves and straight braces, with vertical struts between the tie beam and collar continuing the line of studs below. It has 19th-century casements.

At the rear, the two-storey hall range is recessed between the two-storey gabled wings. The hall range has an 18th-century brick ground floor and a mid-19th-century first floor. There is a half-glazed door to the left with a segmental head, a ground floor casement with a segmental head to the right, and a central first-floor casement with a returned hood mould. The left wing features early 19th-century brickwork, while the right wing has two phases of brickwork, with the lower part dating to the 18th century and the upper part likely from the 19th century.

Inside, the hall range contains a mid-17th-century staircase with some splat balusters featuring elongated perforations. The contemporary first floor has a chamfered and stopped cross beam and joists. The cross-wings have chamfered and stopped spine beams and joists.
