Description
Great Dairy Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 18th century and early 19th century. The earlier rear wing is timber framed with red brick infill and has a colour washed rough cast render. The later front block is made of red brick with a colour washed plaster facade that is incised to imitate ashlar. The building has 20th century tile roofs and features a double-pile plan with a two-span roof, standing two storeys tall.
The front block has two rectangular bays on the ground floor, each with French windows. The first floor features two 2-light casements with glazing bars, set in architrave surrounds with brackets supporting the sills. These flank a smaller 2-light casement, which is located under a flat stucco arch with a keystone and also has brackets to the sill. The central doorway is sheltered by a gabled timber porch that has trellis-work sides, wavy-edged bargeboards, and a drop finial. Red brick paired stacks are present at both gable ends, and there is a brick band at the eaves level of the gable ends. The rear block has various 20th century casements, and there are one-storey outbuilding additions to the west and east.
