Description

Bulls Farm House is a house dating from the mid-17th century, with alterations and extensions made in the 20th century. It has a timber frame and is rendered, featuring a steeply pitched half-hipped tiled roof. The building follows a three-cell lobby entry plan and has one storey with an attic. There is a plinth, and the entrance is located to the right of the centre, featuring a 20th-century gabled porch. The house has three-light small pane flush frame casements with hood boards, boxed eaves, and three gabled two-light dormers. A cross axial ridge stack is positioned behind the entrance, with a rebuilt cap. The left end of the house has a later external stack and an attic casement, while the right end features a 20th-century outshut on the ground floor and an attic casement. At the rear, a tiled oven outshut projects behind the stack, with an entrance to the left, casements, a horizontal sliding sash, and a dormer. There is also a 20th-century flat-roofed addition. Inside, the house has exposed framing that has been altered, with stop-chamfered bearers and joists, as well as tension braces.
