Description
Slough Farmhouse is a late 17th century, two-storey house constructed with a timber frame and plastered exterior. It features a red plain tile roof and a lean-to at the rear. The house has casement windows and retains its original chimney stack. At the north end, there is a large early 19th century extension made of painted brick and stucco, topped with a grey slate hipped roof. This extension includes a three-window range of vertical sliding sashes with glazing bars and a simple pediment doorcase.
