Description
Wood Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1698 on the east gable. It is constructed of red brick with a pantiled roof and features two storeys and attics, along with a two-storey lean-to on the north side. The south facade has five windows that are unevenly spaced. The first-floor windows are cross-casements with leaded glazing, while the ground floor openings have been altered. The central door has two large raised and fielded panels and is framed by a moulded architrave. There is a later porch with a lead roof supported by two round columns with plain capitals. On each side of the doorway, there is a one-light window, and there are two 3-light casements with transoms and leaded glazing. A moulded brick string course runs along the first floor. The gables have parapets with internal chimney stacks and moulded eaves corbels. The east gable features two ground floor lights with leaded glazing, two blocked first floor openings, and two attic casements with glazing bars, along with a string course at attic floor level. The lean-to on the north side has a catslide roof and segmental-headed 3-light casements. There is a single-storey service range on the west gable and an attached garden wall to the south, which has pilaster buttresses and a brick dentil course below the coping.
