Description

Home Farm Cottage is a house dating from the early 18th century. It has a timber frame that is plastered, with weatherboarding on the ground floor front and the upper floor at the rear, which is above a later red brick casing. The west gable is plastered below and has weatherboarding above. The cottage features steep old red tile roofs and is two storeys high, with a two-room layout and a central chimney, along with a narrower two-storey extension on the east end. The south front has two flush three-light casement windows on each floor, with a central door that has a simple surround and a flat hood supported by ogee brackets. The east extension also has a similar window on each floor.
