Description

Brewhouse Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-framed farmhouse that was refronted in the early 20th century. The front is covered in white-painted weatherboarding and has two storeys with three glazing-bar casements. It features a slate roof and a half-glazed door set in an open square wood porch. The building has a T plan, with an early 19th-century rear projection that has a stucco north wall and a flush panel door leading towards the farmyard, flanked by 4/8-pane sash windows. There are three broad 17th-century red brick chimney stacks rising from the core of the house. Inside, there is a mid-17th-century staircase with slat balusters and moulded newel posts located in the rear centre, as well as a Jacobean overmantel consisting of three panels in the ground floor front east room. A 17th-century red brick wall extends from the east side of the front of the house, enclosing the front garden on the right side.
