Marton Farm House

A house, formerly a farmhouse, dating from the early to mid-18th century, with additions from the 19th century and alterations in the 19th and late 20th centuries. The house is constructed of Flemish bond brick, featuring a dog-tooth cornice and a painted stone string course. It has a tile roof and brick end stacks and follows a U-plan, with wings to the rear and a smaller range to the right. The house is two storeys and an attic, with a three-window front. A panelled entrance door, with a decorative overlight in a painted, moulded wood surround, is sheltered by a pitched hood with a dentil cornice supported by shaped brackets. The ground floor windows are 16-pane sashes. The first floor has late 20th-century top-hung windows with glazing bars, set within smaller openings. Painted stone flat arches, each with a keystone, top the ground-floor windows. Two hipped roof dormers each contain a two-light casement with glazing bars and a moulded cornice. A 19th-century addition to the right has three small windows. The return side to Birdingbury Road is a three-bay range; the ground floor has a 16-pane sash on the left and a late 20th-century window centrally. Early 20th-century casements are above, with the third bay being blind. The interior has not been inspected.
