Description
Tollgate Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse made of brick, topped with a black pantiled roof. The building has two storeys and features a central square porch supported by rusticated pilasters, along with a painted punched balustrade. The porch includes a deep moulded semi-circular doorcase with a panelled door and semi-circular lights on either side. There is one sash window on each side of the porch and three sash windows on the first floor, all featuring glazing bars and set under skewback arches. The roof is hipped, and there is a single-storey canted bay window on the west side, which has a moulded architrave with rusticated pilasters and vermiculated quoins. At the rear, there is a late 18th-century cross wing that is two storeys high, with two casement windows on each floor and a central gabled door, topped by a gabled roof. A smokehouse is attached to the left side of the farmhouse.
