Priory Farmhouse

Priory Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates from the 16th century and has been significantly modernised and subdivided in the 20th century. It is constructed of brick and timber frame, rendered and whitewashed, with steeply-pitched pantiled roofs. The building has two storeys and attics, featuring a T-shaped plan with a cross-wing at the east end.

The east facade is two windows wide, with two 3-light 20th-century casements. To the right on the ground floor, there is a canted bay with a hipped slate roof and sash windows that have glazing bars. The doorway is located between the window openings and consists of a 4-panel door with a rectangular fanlight, reeded pilasters, and a canopy supported by console brackets. The south gable of the cross-wing has a brick return with a parapet on moulded brick corbels and octagonal finials at the base of the gable.

Inside, there is a large internal gable stack featuring three octagonal shafts on moulded bases, linked by a plain cap made of 20th-century brickwork; the main stack is rendered above the roofline. An external stack of 20th-century brickwork is found on the north gable of the cross-wing. The south wall of the main range has an off-centre gabled two-storey porch that is partly timber framed and underbuilt in brick with plain corner pilasters. It features a pointed entrance arch with a plain brick drip mould and an old entrance door with ovolo-moulded battens and a doorframe with a wide stopped chamfer.

The bay between the porch and the cross-wing contains 20th-century casements and a pantiled wedge dormer. To the west of the porch, there are two widely spaced windows with 3-light 20th-century standard casements, and a pointed-arch doorway between them, which has been rebuilt in 20th-century red brick. Opposite the doorway, there is a large axial chimney stack with three octagonal shafts on moulded bases, with the easternmost shaft having been rebuilt. The tops of the shafts are linked by a plain cap of 20th-century brickwork. The western bay is made of whitewashed brick, and the west gable has been rebuilt in 20th-century red brick.

The rear (north) elevation has scattered fenestration of 20th-century casements, with a slight projection at the north-west corner that includes a 20th-century dormer. The north wall has been rebuilt with faced-in 20th-century whitewashed brick. There is also a low single-storey pantiled range on the north gable of the cross-wing.
