Sadler'S Farmhouse

Sadler's Farmhouse is a house dating from the mid 16th century, with additions from the 19th century. It has a timber-framed structure with 20th-century plastering and roofs made of peg and clay tiles. The building has an L-shaped plan and consists of two storeys and attics. Most of the windows are 20th-century casements with glazing bars, except for two.

The front (west) elevation features a large range of five windows, with a smaller single window at the south end. There is a large 17th-century rectangular chimney stack towards the north end and a smaller stack at the south end of both units. The principal block has somewhat irregular windows, including one, two, and three-light designs, and a shallow bay window with four lights on the ground floor at the north end. A central 20th-century doorway is sheltered by a lean-to porch made of timber and brick with a peg-tiled roof. There are two gabled dormer windows located at the centre and south end.

The lesser south end unit has upper and lower three-light windows, with the upper window designed as a dropped dormer. The rear (east) elevation mirrors the front, with an additional lean-to featuring a catslide roof at the south end of the principal range, and a slender 19th-century stack on the south side. The windows are similar to those at the front, including a six-light casement window on the ground floor of the lean-to.

On the ground floor of the principal range at the north end, there are two three-light mid 16th-century windows with roll and hollow chamfer moulded mullions and plain minor diagonally set intermediates, along with shutter rebates. Both windows are now covered with glass. The south end unit has a plain appearance with a fully glazed 20th-century door. The south end elevation features two gables with stacks almost aligned and a rear outshut with a stack, along with three first-floor casement windows. To the west, there is a long ground floor wing made of 19th-century red brick at the west end, while the rest is rendered with a corrugated asbestos roof and 20th-century windows. The north side of the wing is constructed of 19th-century random brick and cobbles. The north end elevation is plain, except for an attic two-light casement window and a prominent weathering board at the eaves level.

The interior has not been inspected, but it is noted to have exposed framing and flat laid ceiling joists, which are consistent with mid 16th-century windows. The house appears to have been developed into a three-celled type during the 17th century.
