Description
Doves Farmhouse is an 18th-century timber-framed and weatherboarded farmhouse with a modern addition on the south side. The north front was originally the main facade. The original part of the house is two storeys high with a three-window arrangement, featuring double-hung sash windows with glazing bars. A central doorway provides access. The addition has casement windows. The main block has a tiled roof, hipped at the east and west ends, while the south addition has a slate lean-to roof.
