Description
Horrex Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse constructed of gault brick, topped with a black and red pantile roof arranged in a chequer pattern. The building has three storeys and features five bays, each with late 20th-century double glazed windows set in their original openings, which are adorned with skewback arches. The windows on the top storey are smaller, with two of the openings being blind. The central window on the first floor is slightly highlighted by raised central voussoirs of the skewback arch, mimicking a keystone. A platband runs between the ground and first floors, and there is a simple dentil cornice. The central doorway is topped with a Y-traceried semicircular fanlight and framed by a doorcase with a pair of fluted pilasters that support a modern pitched hood. The front door is raised and fielded panelled. The farmhouse also features gable-end stacks and a continuous outshut at the rear, which has a catslide roof.
