Description

Willow Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1600 and later. It features a rendered timber frame with rendered brick extensions at the rear and side, topped with thatched roofs. The building has a lobby entrance type plan, with an 18th-century rear extension that blocks the original entrance and creates a T-shaped layout. It stands two storeys tall and has a facade with four late 20th-century hardwood mullion and transom casement windows with imitation cames. There is one surviving 18th-century three-light window with a metal casement and leaded glazing. A modern gabled porch has been added to the front. The rear facades also have 20th-century casements, except for one 19th-century two-light casement window at first floor level, which has "cheese room" painted above it on a panel. The main block has an off-centre axial stack, while the rear extension features a staged external stack.

Inside, there is a blocked lobby door with a four-centred head, chamfered beams with elaborate stops, and one room that has angle rolls to the common joists. The staircase remains in its original position but has likely been altered. The roof features clasped purlins.
