Description

Wood Farm House is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century and early 19th century. It features a timber frame with rendered wattle and daub infilling and a black and red pantiled roof. The original 17th-century section is located to the left of the porch and follows a lobby entrance plan. The building has one storey and an attic, with a brick plinth and irregular wall posts. There is a panelled door to the left of centre from the 19th century, a sash window to the left in its original opening, and two paired sashes to the right in altered openings. The house has three gabled dormers with 20th-century casements and a hipped roof with an axial stack above the door.

To the south, there is a 19th-century wing made of rendered brick, which has two storeys and features a wide pedimented porch supported by Tuscan order columns. This wing includes a 19th-century panelled door, a casement window on the ground floor, and a 20th-century casement on the first floor, all beneath a gabled roof. Additionally, there is a late 19th-century wing at the rear of the house.
