Description

Peeches Farmhouse is a house dating from the early 15th century and late 16th century, with a 17th-century extension. It is timber framed and plastered. The original structure features an integral first floor and a crown post roof, with original windows on the west side. The late 16th-century addition is of good quality, consisting of two bays and a chimney bay, with a side purlin roof. The building has two storeys and a plain red tile hipped roof on the left, along with a hipped crosswing on the right. The facade includes a range of three windows with 20th-century square leaded casements. The entrance features a central plank and muntin door with a moulded surround and a flat canopy. There is an off-centre attached square red brick chimney and another red brick chimney on the rear wing.
