Description

Green Farmhouse is a 17th-century house constructed with a timber frame and covered in colourwashed roughcast render, topped with a shingle roof. The building has a two-room plan and stands two storeys high. The front (north) elevation features two 2-light casement windows with glazing bars on the ground floor. The first floor includes a 3-light leaded casement window, a single light window, and another 2-light casement window with glazing bars. There is a gabled porch that contains a 20th-century door, aligned with a rendered brick ridge stack that serves back-to-back hearths. To the left gable end, there is a one-storey and attic addition, timber framed with 20th-century brick infill and a shingle roof, which is marked with the carved date 1727. The right gable end has a single light casement and a 20th-century single-storey addition.
