Description
Ashman's Farmhouse is a house likely dating to the 17th century or earlier, with a significant 18th-century facade and later alterations. It is timber-framed with a painted brick facade. The roof is hipped and sprocketed, covered in red plain tiles, and features three red brick chimney stacks. The house has two storeys and a dentilled eaves cornice. The front elevation originally had a three-window range of small-paned vertically sliding sash windows, though the recessed brickwork to the left now contains a 20th-century casement window on the ground floor. A four-panelled door is positioned centrally, with two lights above and a fluted surround topped by a flat canopy supported by brackets.
