Description
Street Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 16th century or earlier, with later alterations and additions. It features a timber frame with sections that are plastered and others that are faced with painted brick. The roof is covered with red plain tiles. There are central rear and external left chimney stacks made of red brick. The house has a two-storey gabled crosswing on the left side, while the right range is one storey with attics and includes a gabled dormer and an outshot with a gablet. The windows consist of a 1:2 arrangement of 20th-century three-light casements, and there is a 20th-century glazed door in the right range. Inside, there are remains of a two-armed crown post roof construction in the right range.
