Description
Green Farm Restaurant is a house that has been converted into a restaurant. It dates back to the early 17th century and was restored and refaced in the 19th century. The building is constructed of galleted flint with brick and stone dressings and has an E-plan layout with a range at the rear.
The entrance front features five bays and is two storeys high. It has a flint plinth capped with brick and some stone quoins. The central gabled porch, which is two storeys tall, is accessed from the left side. The ground floor has an oval light with brick reveals, and there is a similar opening to the right side that is now blocked. The doorway has a round-headed brick arch with a square-headed outer arch beneath a brick pediment, which has been rendered. The porch has a stepped gable.
Flanking the porch are two bays with 19th-century casements fitted into earlier openings, which have chamfered brick reveals and brick pediments above. The upper right-hand window is a sash window with horns. The end gabled bays project, featuring casements in earlier pedimented openings, with a small light on the ground floor of the right bay. The attic openings are no longer visible, likely covered during the refacing, and have stepped gables.
On the left-hand gable return, there is a single bay on each storey that contains a five-light 19th-century wooden mullion and transom window. The stacks at the rear of the projecting end bays have four polygonal clustered shafts, which have been renewed. The left-hand stack is now part of a later 17th-century range at the rear, which is two storeys and two bays wide, featuring 19th-century casements in openings with rendered reveals and a 20th-century porch.
Inside, there are many doorframes with double ovolo and fillet moulding with bar stops. One stone fireplace features Tudor roses and a four-centred arch, while other stone fireplaces have been restored in the 19th century.
