Description

Poplar Farmhouse is a likely 17th century timber-framed house that has been rendered. It features a later, lower-pitched roof made of black glazed pantiles with gabled ends. The building has two storeys and an attic, with attic windows located in the gable ends. The early 19th century includes 3-light casement windows. The east doorway, which is positioned off-centre in front of the chimney stack, has a modern glazed porch.
