Description
Rowley Gate Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1686. It is built of ashlar with a tiled roof featuring verge parapets, an end stack to the left, and a ridge stack to the right of the center. The building has two storeys and a three-window front. To the left, there is a range of three-light chamfer mullion windows set in chamfered reveals, with a string course above the ground floor window. To the right, there are 20th-century casements and a French casement on the ground floor. A projecting, gabled two-storey porch is located to the right of the center, with a lean-to against its left side. The porch has two 20th-century casements, one centrally located in the gable, above a steep pedimented Tudor-arched entrance that is inscribed with "Anne Hilling 1686," although the inscription is almost lost.
