Description
Stocker's Farm House is a house that likely dates from the 17th century, with rebuilding, casing, and extensions occurring in the 18th and 19th centuries. The house features some exposed timber framing in the gables, while the walls appear to be constructed of red brick with burnt headers and later stock. It has tiled roofs and is designed as a rectangular multi-gabled block with a wing that forms an L shape. The original layout is unclear.
The house has two storeys and a three-bay front, with a slightly projecting central entrance bay. Above the entrance is a later gabled timber porch, which features a glazing bar sash window in a box frame and a gable with an exposed tie beam and queen struts that clasp the purlin. The left bay includes a 19th-century canted bay window on the ground floor, a first-floor glazing bar sash, and exposed purlins and plates in a broader gable with a taller ridge. The right bay has four-light casements with leaded panes and a ground floor with a cambered head, along with burnt brick vertical strips and a projecting brick course at the eaves.
The right return displays burnt brick vertical strips and exposed framing in two gables, with a single light window on the first floor and a rectangular bay on the ground floor, along with a tripartite sash towards the rear. At the back, there is a part stock brick wing set back from the main structure, featuring an entrance under a raked hood, a ground floor five-light casement, and two first-floor sashes in reveals. The ridge stack is located towards the front, with a gable end stack at the rear. The left return from the front has two stacks, one window on each floor, and a projecting brick course at the eaves level.
At the rear, the left wing has a red brick ground floor and a stock brick first floor, while the stock brick gable end of a short wing to the right has a ground floor rectangular bay and a first-floor 16-pane sash. The ridge line is broken at the center, with a first-floor sash and dentilled brick eaves on the center right, and a horizontal sliding sash on the center left. There are ground floor additions, but the interior has not been inspected.
