Description
Laundry Farmhouse is a house located on the Shuttleworth estate, built in a cottage ornee style. Although plaques indicate the year 1879 and feature the Shuttleworth emblem, the building is a reworking of an 18th-century structure. It has a timber-framed construction with colourwashed roughcast render and applied timber framing on the gable attics. The roof is covered with clay tiles, featuring bands of fishscale tiles, decorative ridge cresting, and finials. The house has an L-plan layout with one storey and attics, along with a single-storey block to the north.
On the south elevation, there are three 3-light casements with glazing bars on the ground floor, and three gabled dormers in the attic that contain 3-light cast iron lattice casements. A gabled open porch is situated between the two left-hand bays, featuring a plank door. The house has one brick double ridge stack and one integral gable end stack, both topped with Tudor style pots. Most of the windows throughout the building are cast iron lattice casements.
