Description

Waterloo Farmhouse is a house from the late 18th century, possibly with earlier origins. It features colourwashed roughcast render, likely over a timber frame, with a mix of clay tiles and some 20th-century tiles on the roofs. The main block is two storeys high and has a two-room plan. There are two gables projecting from the rear, which are also two storeys and possibly older.

On the south elevation, there are sashes with moulded frames, with two on the ground floor and three on the first floor. The central doorway is located under a sloping bracketed hood and has a 20th-century part-glazed door. There are 19th-century yellow brick integral stacks at both gable ends. The other elevations display a variety of sashes and casements. Additionally, there are single-storeyed colourwashed brick blocks projecting to the west and east from the rear blocks.
