Description
Church Farmhouse is a 15th to 16th century timber-framed and plastered building that has undergone significant later alterations. It features a cross wing at the southeast end with an extension to the southwest. The northeast front and the cross wing have been refaced in modern brick. The building is two storeys high with attics. The northwest gable end showcases well-preserved exposed timber-framing, including a jettied upper storey and gable supported by finely carved bressumers. The lower bressumer is decorated with the initials R.M. and the date 1587. The windows are modern casements set within original framed openings, with blocked high-level windows on either side and an original blocked window in the gable. The main block has a ridge chimney stack with diagonal shafts. Inside, the farmhouse features heavy exposed timber-framing, ceiling beams and joists, Tudor brick fireplaces, and an original spiral staircase.
