Description
Hollycroft Farmhouse is an early 19th-century house constructed of local brick in Flemish bond. It features a steeply pitched slate roof with a wood dentil eaves cornice and tumbled gable ends, along with end stacks. The building stands two storeys high and has three mid-19th century recessed hung sash windows, each with four panes, topped by gauged red brick arches. The central round-headed doorway is adorned with a broken pediment and a doorcase featuring pilasters and an entablature. The door itself consists of four panels, two of which are small glazed upper panels, and it is topped by a round head fanlight.
