Description
Parsonage Farmhouse is a building that likely dates from the 17th century, with some exterior features from the 18th century. It is timber-framed and has decorative plaster panels. The roof is tiled, featuring a full hip at one end and a gambrel at the other. The farmhouse has two storeys, and the upper storey includes a range of four double-hung sash windows with glazing bars. There are two axial brick chimney stacks. At the rear, there is a weatherboarded, plastered, and tiled wing that has a large original brick gable stack. Additionally, there is a red brick boundary wall with half round brick coping, which separates the house from the farmyard on the eastern side.
