Description
Hartwell Farmhouse is a house that features an earlier 18th-century recasing of a 17th-century structure. It is built of red brick, with some vitrified bricks, and has lighter red brick dressings. The roof is steeply pitched and hipped, covered with clay tiles. Internally, some substantial timber framing is visible. The main block is two storeys high with attics and is single room deep, while a lower two-storey block at the rear forms an L-shape.
The front elevation is symmetrical, with a brick band at the first floor level. There are five windows on the first floor and four on the ground floor. The central and right-hand windows on the first floor are blind, while the others are flush sashes with glazing bars. The ground floor windows are set under gauged brick flat arches. The central doorway features a six-fielded panel door beneath a rectangular fanlight, topped with a flat hood on cut brackets. A Britannia fire insurance plaque is set into the wall above the doorway. The attic includes a hipped dormer with a two-light casement. The eaves cornice is moulded timber, and there is a red brick chimney stack on the rear wall.
Inside, the first floor hallway has some reset 17th-century panelling with a moulded frieze.
