Harbages Farmhouse And Attached Walls

Harbages Farmhouse, now a house, dates to the early 17th century. It is located on The Green in Warmington and is shown on Ordnance Survey maps as The Harbages. The building is constructed of coursed squared ironstone rubble, with a stone slate roof. The left side has a coped gable parapet, while the right side is hipped. The roof features rendered end and ridge stacks. The original L-shaped plan has been extended to a U-plan, with a wing added to the rear. The farmhouse is two storeys high, with a four-window front. A half-glazed, four-centred, four-panelled door is set within a chamfered archway and beneath a large hood mould. Some windows are mullioned, with hood moulds; the windows on the left side have four lights, and those on the right have three. Two three-light casements on the left side of the first floor have horizontal glazing bars and painted wood lintels. A similar four-light casement to the right of the entrance also features a lintel, below the remains of a hood mould. The return side has both two- and three-light mullioned windows, including a basement window. A rear doorway, now within a late 20th-century addition, is similar to the front entrance door. There are also three-light mullioned windows to the rear. The wings have coped gable parapets. The left wing has a French window and casements, while the right wing dates to the late 18th or early 19th century and has a slate roof. Casements have been added in the 20th century. Internally, the passage floor is flagged, with a chamfered, four-centred doorway. A room to the left has an altered open fireplace, while the room to the right has a further open fireplace. The interior also features broad chamfered beams and an old stone and timber winder staircase. An attached wall to the front is built of regular coursed ironstone with flat coping, and a return section is of coursed drystone. An 18th-century wall made of regular coursed ironstone is attached to the rear.
