Description
Wandon End Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates back to the 16th century, featuring a crosswing. The hall range was altered in the 17th century, while the eastern range and the brick facing on the south side of the crosswing were added in the early 18th century, with further alterations made in the 19th century. The building has a timber frame that is roughcast, with red brick on the ground floor, the 18th-century wing, and the south front. It has steep old red tile roofs.
The farmhouse is an L-shaped, two-storey structure that originally faced east. It has a taller gabled south wing extending to the rear and a short hall range with a rear outshut beneath a catslide roof extension. A new entrance front was created on the south side of the crosswing when a two-storey hipped brick wing was built against the east front, obscuring the crosswing and part of the hall range. This wing features a tall wallhead chimney with two linked square shafts on its east side and a large stair window to the right. The farmhouse generally has flush casement windows, but the south front includes 19th-century sash windows with two-over-two panes. There is a large internal chimney at the junction of the hall range and the crosswing, as well as a large external chimney on the north side of the west part of the crosswing.
