Description
Church Farmhouse in East Lexham is a farmhouse that dates back to the 16th or 17th century. It features a timber frame that was infilled with brick in 1752, as indicated by the datestone on the south gable. The building was extended in the 19th century. It is constructed from timber frame, brick, re-used ashlar, and flint, topped with pantiled roofs. The farmhouse has two storeys with an attic and includes a two-storey porch made of re-used ashlar and flint, with dog-tooth moulding on one fragment of ashlar.
The front has three bays of sash windows with glazing bars and a glazed door, all set beneath skewback arches with cambered soffits. There is one window on the ground floor facade and a tripartite window on the north ground floor gable end. At the rear, there are two gabled extensions, and the building features 19th-century crow-stepped gables. It also has a gable-end stack and an axial stack, both with Victorian decorative shafts.
