Description

Church Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse located on Church Street in Great Ellingham. The building features some timber framing with rendered clay lump set on a brick plinth, topped by a thatched gabled roof. It has a lobby entrance plan and consists of one storey with a dormer attic. The central door is flanked by one renewed three-light casement window on each side. Above the eaves line, there are two dormers under the thatch, and a ridge stack is positioned over the door.
