Description
Southern Green Farm House is a house with early 17th century origins that was remodeled in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of brick, roughcast, and rendered materials, topped with a shallow pitched slate roof. The building features three broad bays and stands two storeys tall. The entrance is located between the right and central bays, framed by a 19th-century gabled porch with a chamfered four-centred outer arch.
On the ground floor, to the right, there is a six-light transomed casement window, recessed with chamfered jambs, and to the left, an eight-light casement window. Further left, there are a four-light vertical casement and a four-light horizontal casement, the latter having ovolo moulded mullions. A continuous moulded plat band runs along the building. The first floor has three recessed six-light transomed casements. Between the left and central bays, there is a repositioned datestone marked 'EWM 1632' along with a Sun Fire Insurance Marker.
The left end of the house features a stock brick external stack, while the first floor has a horizontal sliding sash window. The right end has ground floor French windows and a six-light casement on the first floor. At the rear, there is a large rendered stack, likely from the 17th century, positioned centrally and external to the main block. To the left, there is a catslide roof extending from the main roof over a lean-to projection. There are also lower large lean-to projections on the right with dormers.
Inside, the house contains many re-used stop-chamfered binding beams, arranged both axially and cross axially, as well as moulded doorcases leading to early plank doors.
