Description

Chapel Farmhouse is an 18th-century farmhouse constructed from stone, flint, and brick dressings, topped with a pantiled roof. The building features a modified lobby entrance plan and is two storeys high with an attic. The north facade has scattered windows in altered openings, while the west side has four blocked segmental openings and a ground floor doorway that indicate its original use as a barn. The south facade has a simple brick eaves cornice that is dentiled, and both the south facade and the flanking gable walls display fine chequerwork masonry. The window openings have been significantly altered, and the building has coped gables with kneelers and two ridge stacks. An attached barn to the west has been converted into dwellings.
