South House Farm

South House Farm is a house that was formerly a farmhouse, dating from the late 16th century and early 19th century. It features a timber-framed structure that is rendered, topped with plain tile roofs. The building has two tall rendered stacks at the back of the front range, which have rendered tops and square pots. The front range has a hipped roof, while the lower ranges at the rear create a square plan. The older structures originally formed an L-shape, and the lower ranges on the north and east sides are 20th-century additions.

The exterior is two storeys high and has a three-window range. The front features three sash windows on the first floor, with the centre window having 18 panes and the others having 12 panes, all with moulded surrounds. On the ground floor, there are two similar windows and a central 20th-century pedimented doorcase. The west side of the main block has a similar window on each floor. The rear block is single storey with an attic, and its west elevation includes two gabled dormers with two-light casements that have single horizontal glazing bars. The ground floor has a 20th-century stable door, one single double-hung sash window, and one paired couple of double-hung sash windows, each with a single vertical glazing bar. The east elevation features two similar dormers, a small-paned French window, two plain paired sashes, and a single plain sash.

Inside, the front range has a central hall with dogleg stairs that have stick balusters and turned newels, leading to a central top-lit atrium. The north-west rear wing is a late 16th-century timber-framed structure with two bays, featuring a spine beam and bridging joist. It includes one jowled post in the central bay and a truss that originally had two collars and lodged purlins, with curved wind bracing. The walls contain a mixture of internal braces, some interrupting the studs, and much of the timber is reused. The rear wall of the front range has a semicircular-headed small-paned staircase window, which is reeded with roundels and has radiating glazing bars in the head. This window was moved back to its original position during the last restoration in the 1980s.
