Description

Willow Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse featuring a timber frame set on a brick plinth, with roughcast wattle and daub infill. The building has a thatched roof and follows a lobby entrance plan. It is one storey high with a dormer attic. There is one casement window on each side of the door, which is situated below eyebrow dormers that also contain casement windows. The roof is gabled and half hipped to the west, with a ridge stack located above the door.
