Description

Elford's Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with early 19th century and some mid-20th century alterations. It features a timber frame with painted brick and rendered infill, topped by a tile roof. The building has five framed bays aligned north to south and includes a central stack with baffle-entry. It is two storeys high, with a gable located to the right of the centre. There are four windows on the upper floor, which are 3-light casements, except for a single-light casement in the right-hand corner. On the ground floor, there are four 3-light casements, with the two on the left having plank weatherings. The roughly central porch incorporates two pieces of cruck blade, a moulded wooden architrave, and a half-glazed four-panel door. The framing consists of five square panels high.
