Description

Cattlegate Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse that has undergone alterations and extensions in the 19th century. It features colour-washed plaster with red brick gable ends and dentilled eaves, topped by a steeply pitched plain tile roof. The building is two storeys high and has three late 19th-century sash windows. A gabled plastered porch from the 18th century includes a half-glazed six-panel door set in a recessed plain surround. The gables are finished with brick coped parapets and have half projecting central stacks. The left ground floor room displays exposed brick and timber framing, and there are late 19th-century extensions on both the left and right sides.
