Description
New Farmhouse is a house built in 1934 by W F Crittall, with assistance from Messrs Joseph of St Pauls Churchyard, London. This modern movement house is two and part three storeys tall, constructed of painted brick, and features a series of stepped, parapeted, flat roofs. The entrance front includes a central, three-storey, glazed, seven-sided stair tower with a reinforced concrete canopy, which is positioned against a tall, two-storey central block that has symmetrical, lower two-storey wings.
The south garden front has a continuous parapet roofline with the stair tower located behind it. The central two-thirds of this elevation features a reinforced concrete balcony at first floor level, with French windows on both the ground and first floors. At first floor level, there are edge-of-facade windows that wrap around to the east and west elevations. All windows are Crittall metal casements with glazing bars.
Inside, the house retains its original staircase, fitted furniture, and wall finishes. A central flagpole is located on the front of the parapet. There are also various flat-roofed, single-storey ancillary buildings and a long garden wall, which includes contemporary ironwork in filled openings. W F Crittall was the Technical Director of the Crittall Metal Window Company.
