Description

Church Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse made of brick, topped with a roof of black glazed pantiles. The building has two storeys and features three slightly asymmetrical bays. The central position is shared by a doorway and a two-light casement. The doorway has a panelled door set in a shouldered timber case beneath a pediment. On the ground floor, there are two additional three-light casements, while the first floor has two similar casements along with the central two-light casement. All the casements are original. The farmhouse has a bell-based gabled roof with internal end stacks. At the rear, there is a large outshut that includes three 20th-century casements and three late 18th-century casements.
