Description
Eastfield Farmhouse is a mid-19th century farmhouse built of coursed limestone rubble with a slate roof. It has a double pile plan and a 2-span roof with coped gable ends and integral red brick gable end stacks. The symmetrical south elevation features a central doorway, which has been replaced in the 20th century, but retains its original semi-circular fanlight with interlaced glazing bars. Flanking the doorway are two French windows with semi-circular heads and glazing bars. Above, three sash windows with semi-circular heads and glazing bars are placed symmetrically, with the outer pair featuring valances. All openings are topped with keystones. Four windows on the rear elevation have timber lintels; two first-floor windows retain original 3-light casements with glazing bars. Extensions have been added to both gable ends – the eastern one is part-rendered limestone rubble with brick dressings and incorporates a part-glazed double door imitating the French windows of the main block.
