Description
St Thomas’s Farmhouse incorporates materials from a former priory, and it is possible that some medieval walling is still present. The house is largely of the 18th century. It is built of brick with some stone, and has a tiled roof. A moulded stone plinth is visible on the south side, with coved eaves and brick stacks. The farmhouse is three storeys high with an attic, and has a seven-window front with casement windows, some of which are transomed. A wood bracketed hood shelters the front doorway, which has a panelled door. The interior has not been inspected.
