Description
Bell Farmhouse is an 18th-century farmhouse located on the Great North Road in Roxton. It is constructed of red brick and features a slate roof behind a stone-coped parapet. The building has an L-shaped plan and stands two storeys high with attics. Each floor has two sash windows with glazing bars set under flat arches, with the first-floor windows flanking an off-centre dummy window. There are two box dormers, also with sash windows that have glazing bars. The entrance consists of an off-centre six-panel door, with the top pair of panels being glazed, set within a moulded surround that has a flat bracketed hood above it. A brick band runs along the first floor, and at both corners of the parapet, there are stone volutes supporting the coping. The south gable end features a red brick double ridge stack.
