Lordship Farmhouse

Lordship Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates back to the 17th century or earlier. It features a timber frame set on a tarred brick plinth, with roughcast and painted brick casing on parts of the ground floor, and has steep old red tile roofs. The building is a two-storey, asymmetrical H-plan house that is set back from the road and faces south into a yard. It includes a two-storey and attic west parlour crosswing and a long east service crosswing with a lean-to and single-storey gabled extensions on the east side. There is a gabled porch at the angle with the east wing.

Inside, there is a large internal chimney that was likely added later, located at the east end of the hall range, featuring two diagonally set square shafts. Similar shafts are present on the projecting chimney on the west wall of the west crosswing, and there is a rectangular projecting chimney on the east side of the east crosswing, which is enclosed in a gabled extension.

The south front has a flush three-light casement window on each floor of the hall range and each crosswing. There are dripboards across the gable of the west wing at both the first-floor and eaves levels. The rear (north) elevation features two-light casement windows, a small window for the stair in the northeast corner of the parlour crosswing, and a fine Jacobean two-storey canted bay window on the recessed hall range. This bay window has its own gabled roof, ovolo transomed mullioned leaded lights, and iron opening lights. There is also a rear door at the north end of the cross-passage, and the hall floor is supported by an axial beam.
