Description

Bridge End Farmhouse dates from the early 19th century. It is a timber-framed and plastered building with brick, ashlar lining, and a slate and composition tiled roof, featuring red brick stacks. The house has a T-shaped plan.

The north front elevation, which faces east to west, has a principal range with a short wing projecting to the east end. On the ground floor of the principal range is a single casement window with two panes high and three panes wide. A 19th-century moulded window frame in the west end now holds a 20th-century 2-light casement window with four panes high and three panes wide. Above it is an original 19th-century sliding sash window with six panes high and three panes wide. The wing has a 20th-century 3-light casement window with six panes high and four panes wide on the ground floor, and a 2-light casement with four panes high and three panes wide above. A lean-to porch with a catslide roof sits on the west side, and contains a simple doorway. The door has diamond lattice glazing, margin lights, and three sunken lower panels.

The west elevation, facing the street, shows the gable end of the principal range with a 19th-century sliding sash window with four panes high and three panes wide on the ground floor. To the north, a smaller casement window with two panes high and three panes wide is set back, alongside the lean-to porch. Behind this and to the north are side windows of the wing - a ground floor casement with two panes high and four panes wide, and a matching first-floor window.

The east elevation features a gable with a ground-floor casement window (two panes high, three panes wide) and a 2-light casement window (four panes high, three panes wide) above. The wing has a 20th-century door with an upper glazed panel.

The south rear elevation has three window bays, with a principal stack at the roof apex towards the west end. A slender external stack is located on the elevation wall towards the west. Metal casement windows are present: a 2-light window with two panes high and three panes wide on the ground floor at the east end, and two 2-light windows with four panes high and two panes wide on the first floor at the west end. There appears to have been a building break east of the lesser stack, which suggests the plan may have originally been L-shaped.
