Description

Church Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse constructed of roughcast brick and clay lump, topped with pantile roofs. The building has one storey and a dormer attic. The entrance door is located to the left of the centre and is flanked by a 20th-century casement window on each side, with the right window set in its original opening. There are three flat-topped dormers, one of which breaks through the eaves line. A ridge stack is positioned to the right. To the southeast, there is a cross wing that is two storeys high, featuring a French window on the ground floor and a 3-light casement window above, both dating from the 20th century.
