Herring'S Green Farmhouse

Herring's Green Farmhouse is a house that was rebuilt in 1785-1786 for Samuel Whitbread, replacing an earlier structure. It is constructed of red brick, rendered at the basement level, and features a clay tile roof. The building has a double-pile plan with two storeys and attics, and it showcases a two-span roof with Dutch gables, which is an unusual feature for Bedfordshire.

The southeast elevation has a symmetrical facade with four flush sash windows, each with glazing bars, located on the ground and first floors, all topped with flat arches. There is a central 20th-century oculus on the first floor and two gabled dormers with casement windows featuring glazing bars in the attic. The central doorway is flanked by a flight of brick steps with stone dressings and a ball finial, both of which are 20th-century replacements. The door itself is a six-panel design with a rectangular fanlight, surrounded by plain pilasters and an open pediment, replacing an earlier porch that had an open pediment supported by slender columns.

A wood modillion cornice is a 20th-century replacement for the original parapet, which had a central pediment. The house has two red brick integral stacks at each gable end. The southwest gable end features a circular plaque that reads: "S.W, 1785, restored S.W. 1961-2, restored S.C.W. 1973-4."
