Description
Brick House Farmhouse, originally a 15th-century timber-framed and plastered house on a rectangular plan with a “Wealdon” front, incorporates later brick facing. In the 17th century, a south wing was added to the east end, alongside a staircase wing. The main block is two storeys with attics, while the south wing is one storey with attics. The front of the main block has three casement windows. The upper storey is jettied at each end of the front, with a continuous eaves across the middle bay supported on curved brackets. The roofs are tiled. The main block has a 17th-century central chimney stack with diagonal shafts, and there is a gabled dormer window. The south wing also has a gabled dormer on its west side. The interior reveals exposed timber framing, ceiling beams, and joists.
