Colney Heath Farmhouse And Attached Barn

Colney Heath Farmhouse and the attached barn date back to 1695. The farmhouse is timber-framed with roughcast walls and a plain tile roof that features a continuous long ridge, connecting to the barn on the left end. It stands two storeys high and has three original casement windows on the right half of the elevation. The large external chimney stack on the right gable end has a heavy square base and two joined shafts. The two right casements are each three-light with metal frames and square leading, while there is a one-light casement on the first floor to the left, likely for a stairway, beneath which is a replacement casement. The replacement and the two right ground floor casements have 19th-century stuccoed hood moulds. There is a half-glazed door with a moulded frame and a similar hood between the casements. The left half of the elevation is mostly blank, except for a 19th-century door set in a 17th-century wood frame. The barn to the left has two bays and is positioned at right angles, with its gable end projecting to the rear. The side and back walls are weatherboarded, and it features a timber frame with a clasped purlin roof. There is a mid-19th-century wing on the rear right that includes a canted window bay.
