Description

Parsonage Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-framed and plastered house that has undergone modern alterations and additions. A modern gabled wing extends from the north-east end of the building. The farmhouse is two storeys high and features 20th-century casement windows with glazing bars. The roof is tiled and has two end chimney stacks along with a central chimney stack. The end stacks have two grouped hexagonal shafts set on a square base. The chimney stack at the south-west end is original, while the one at the north-east end is either rebuilt or constructed in replica.
