Description
Hole Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 16th century or earlier, with later alterations. The building consists of a main range and a crosswing to the left, with an outshot to the right. It has two storeys and features a plain red tiled roof with a gablet on the crosswing. The exterior showcases an exposed timber frame, which is partly plastered and partly covered with weatherboard.
On the first floor, there are four small paned casement windows, while the ground floor has three similar windows. The left wall retains original mullion openings. The entrance features an off-centre door made of planks and muntins, and there is a hoist door on the right wall. Inside the crosswing, a crown post supports the roof. The house has two chimney stacks: a red brick stack with four attached diagonal shafts on the left and a square red brick chimney on the right.
