Description

Park Farmhouse is a house that has been converted into two dwellings. The front range likely dates from the later 17th century, while the rear features additions from the late 18th to early 19th century and some remodelling. The building is timber-framed and pebbledashed in panels, topped with plain tile roofs and featuring brick stacks. The remodelling reflects a Gothick style.

The house is two storeys high, with the front range designed as a three-cell lobby-entry. It has a gabled porch and ogee-arched casement windows, along with two small casements added around 1985. A central stack is present, and the roof is hipped. The garden front incorporates the front range into a symmetrical composition of five bays, featuring a central entrance bay that is slightly recessed. The doorcase has pilasters, an open pediment, and a pointed fanlight. Throughout the building, there are pointed two-light windows with Y-tracery, and each part of the structure has its own hipped roof.

Inside the front range, the framing is visible, including jowled posts and a wall plate. There is a blocked four-light mullion window on the studded rear wall. The rear range, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, includes features such as wall niches and a dentilled cornice, as well as six-panel doors and a plain pine staircase with a ramped handrail.
