Description
Church Farmhouse is a house dating from around 1600, with extensions added in the 18th and 19th centuries. It has a timber frame, roughcast render, and a roof covered with both machine-made and handmade red plain tiles. The house consists of three bays facing approximately west, featuring a central stack. To the right, there is an 18th or 19th-century extension with an axial stack at the junction and a single-storey wing at the rear. An external stack is located at the left end, along with a single-storey lean-to extension that extends to the rear. The building is two storeys high.
On the ground floor, there is one 19th-century horizontal sash window with four lights, one small light, and two 20th-century casements. The first floor has one similar horizontal sash window and one 20th-century casement. There is a 19th-century half-glazed door in the lean-to porch made of corrugated asbestos, as well as a 20th-century half-glazed door. The original part of the house has a roof of machine-made tiles, while the right extension features handmade tiles. Inside, there are chamfered axial beams with lamb's tongue and notch stops, and plain joists of horizontal section, although some have been replaced by joists of vertical section in front of the right bay. A 20th-century grate is also present. The remainder of the house was not inspected.
