Description
Blue House Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-framed house, altered in the 20th century, built on an L-shaped plan and later faced with plastered brick. It has two storeys and a two-window front, featuring 20th-century casement windows with glazing bars. A central gabled porch projects from the front of the house. The roof is tiled and hipped, with an original diagonally-shafted chimney stack on a rectangular base, although the upper portion is modern.
