Description
Mill Farm House is a house that dates from the 17th century or earlier, with some later alterations. It is constructed from timber framing and plaster, topped with a red tiled roof that is hipped to the left. There is a central red brick chimney stack and a wing to the north. The house has two storeys and features an extension at the eaves level on the right side. The front has a three-window range, primarily consisting of small paned vertically sliding sash windows, along with two 20th-century casements. The entrance is marked by a central panelled door with two lights, which is sheltered by a flat canopy supported by brackets.
