Description

Middle Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse constructed of brick with a pantiled roof, featuring black glazing on the front. The building is designed in an L shape and has two storeys with a seven-bay facade. The entrance is located in the second bay from the right, while a 20th-century lean-to porch obscures the fifth bay. The windows are mid-20th-century metal casements set under segmental arches, and there are five buttress pilasters. The farmhouse has a dentilled eaves cornice and gable parapets supported by kneelers. A ridge stack is positioned over the fifth bay and another is located at the north gable.
