Description
Claredon Farmhouse is a house with origins dating back to the 16th century. It features a timber frame with plastering and has a 19th-century brick facing. The roof is hipped and covered with red tiles, and it has moulded eaves. The building is two storeys high and has a five-window range of 19th-century vertically sliding sash windows on the first floor, with a matching sash window on the ground floor to the left. To the right, there is a 19th-century three-light casement window, and a bow French window is also present. The entrance features a 19th-century two-panel, two-light recessed door, which has crossed glazing bars on the fanlight above. This door is flanked by pilasters, a frieze, and a flat canopy. There are two square attached chimney shafts on the left side and an external red brick chimney stack on the left return.
