Description

Street Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 15th and 17th centuries, with 19th-century external details. It is timber framed and plastered, standing two storeys high with gabled roofs covered in peg tiles. The building has an 'H' plan form, featuring two crosswings and a mid-19th-century extension at the north end. The front displays two gabled and jet tied crosswings, with a higher ridge line over the hall. There is one gabled dormer in the hall roof and an off-centred ridgeline stack in an L shape. The early 19th-century double-hung sash windows have small panes and are located in the crosswings, hall, and the 19th-century extension. Central to the hall is an early 19th-century door surround with a panelled frieze, fluted pilasters, and the original door featuring coloured glass inserts. The rear of the farmhouse has a long single-storey lean-to covered in peg tiles, a 19th-century conservatory, and a gabled single-storey extension on the south end. All gables are adorned with mid-19th-century fretted bargeboards and finials. The south crosswing features an encased tiebeam with a steeply cambered profile, while the hall exhibits timber framing characteristic of the 17th century.
