Description

Edwards Farmhouse is a mid-18th century farmhouse that has been converted into two cottages. It is constructed from roughcast clay-lump with a pantiled roof and features a lobby entrance plan. The building has two storeys, with doors located to the left of centre and at the right. There are two 18th-century casement windows on the ground floor and two similar windows above, to the left of two 20th-century casements. The gabled roof has a ridge stack positioned over the entrance door. To the right, there is a single-storey extension that is also gabled and pantiled. At the rear, there is a 20th-century outshut. Some internal ceiling beams from the original structure are still visible.
