Description

Peterstone Farm House is a farmhouse that was rebuilt as cottages around 1830, incorporating medieval remains from the Augustinian Canons house, Peterstone Priory, which was founded before 1200 and became a hospital in 1449 under the Walsingham Augustinian Canons, the guardians of the Shrine of Our Lady. The building features gault brick and smut pantile roofs for the later construction, while the north front of the earlier structure includes flint, carstone, clunch, and brick.

The house is two stories with attics and has a 'T' plan layout, with the upright medieval section and the crosspiece dating to around 1830. The north front of the earlier build has a single chamfer doorway with a hood mould arch, brick end quoins, and a cut stone kneeler on the east gable. It has three ground floor windows and two first floor casements with two and three lights, featuring lead glazing bars in brick-dressed openings.

The west front, which is a single bay central gable from around 1830, has two flanking wings. The gable includes one ground floor, one first floor, and one attic sash window with glazing bars, end pilasters, a first floor platband, a moulded brick cornice, and gable eaves with an apex stack. The wings have one ground and one first floor sash window with glazing bars, and one blocked first floor window, all under flat rubbed brick arches. The south wing has a part-glazed door beneath a radial glazing bar sash and a round rubbed brick arch, with a corresponding door to the north that is blocked. The building features a moulded brick eaves cornice, coped parapet gables, and two end stacks. These details indicate that it is a building associated with the Holkham Estate.
