Description
Pard House Farmhouse and the attached stable with loft is a farmhouse dating back to the 15th century, with alterations made in the late 16th and 17th centuries, and further changes since then. The structure is timber-framed, featuring wattle and daub along with painted brick panels, topped with a plain tiled roof and brick stacks—one off-centre, one at the rear, and one on the left wing. The building has an irregular U-shaped plan that includes a central hall, a solar cross-wing on the left, and a remodelled service end. It stands two storeys tall.
The central hall likely consists of three framed bays and has two leaded casement windows to the left of a 19th-century lean-to on the ground floor. The area in front of the house to the right has been excavated, and the lean-to contains a basement. The first floor features a 4-light mullion and transom window, a 3-light casement, and a gabled dormer. The solar cross-wing on the left has a 19th-century 5-light bow window and a 3-light leaded casement above, along with jowl posts and a curved brace on the gable end, as well as curved braces on the side elevation.
The gabled wing on the right, which is rendered brick, was formerly a stable and obscures part of the service end of the house. It has a door with a cambered head on the left and a shuttered window to the right, with the door now located at the rear of the cross-wing. Inside, the hall features a full cruck truss with a collar beam, and there is further evidence of another cruck truss in the central room on the first floor. The ground floor centre room has chamfered beams with scroll stops, while the first floor of the solar cross-wing is partly ceiled but retains curved wind-braces.
