Description

Pennet's Farmhouse is a house with origins dating from the late 14th century to early 16th century, featuring later additions and alterations from the 16th and 17th centuries. The building is timber framed and plastered, topped with a half hipped red plain tiled roof and an off-centre red brick chimney stack.

To the left, there is a 2 bay single storey hall from the 14th or 15th century, which has vertically boarded doors. The main range of the house has two storeys and attics, with a three-window range of small paned vertically sliding sashes set in moulded surrounds. A 20th-century glazed porch with a hipped red tiled roof and glazed margins leads to the door.

Inside, the main range features 16th and 17th-century panelling on the stairs, and several original board doors, some with ironmongery. The 2 bay hall includes a four-armed cross quadrate crown post on a heavy cambered tie beam, supported by chamfered arched braces, each with five pegs to the tie beam. The roof structure is heavily sooted and has been converted into a bake and brewhouse in the 18th or 19th century, which includes a large red brick bake/brew chimney on the north wall.
