Description
St Johns Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid 17th century, with an extension added in the 18th century. It is timber-framed, roughcast rendered, and has a cement-tiled roof featuring a red brick ridge stack, except for the upper courses which are made of 19th-century gault brick. The original structure consists of a three-bay range running north-south, with a later 18th to 19th-century wing at the front. The building has two storeys and an attic, with three 19th to 20th-century hung sash windows on the first floor and two canted bay windows flanking the baffle entry doorway. The front wing is also framed, rendered, and has modern tiles. It is a single storey with a 19th-century window and an adjacent doorway with a boarded door.
Inside, there are clunch inglenook back-to-back hearths, which have undergone some brick rebuilding. There are late 17th-century scratchings on the walls, possibly dating to 1699, 1696, or 1668. The main beam features ogee stops, and the joists are hollow stopped. The chimney stack is flanked by posts in the side walls. The 18th to 19th-century extension was originally open to the roof.
