Whittleton'S Farmhouse

Whittleton's Farmhouse is a late 15th-century hall house that has undergone significant alterations. The original crown post roof was removed in 1974. The building is constructed of flint with brick dressings and has a roof made of concrete tiles. It stands two storeys high and is divided into three bays. The central entrance features a fluted 19th-century doorcase, with one 20th-century casement window on either side in reduced openings. The first floor has three 20th-century casements, also in reduced openings. The gabled roof includes internal end stacks, and the west gable displays a brick gable head supported by rubbed brick kneelers, along with a string course at the eaves line. There are two blocked square windows in the gable wall and one 20th-century casement at first floor level. At the apex of the gable, three bricks form a date plaque reading "BDS 1602." The rear of the farmhouse is rendered and features an outshut and a 20th-century flat-topped extension. Inside, the lounge contains two sunk quadrant moulded bridging beams with tongue and jewelled bar stops. The position of the screens passage is identifiable by the survival of three arched service doors made of timber, which have closely set doors and rounded arches.
