Street Farmhouse

Street Farmhouse is a former farmhouse dating from the mid 16th century to the early 17th century. It has two storeys in parts and includes a main range and a later cross-wing. The building is timber-framed and rendered, featuring pantiles on the southern slope of the cross-wing, while the rest of the roof is thatched. The windows, mainly from the 20th century, are in a mullioned style, with both 3-light and 2-light configurations. The entrance door is also from the 20th century.

The main range is oriented sideways to the street and consists of five bays, with a three-cell plan that includes an internal chimney and a cross passage. This area is separated from the hall by an original plank screen. The rooms on either side of the stack have exposed timber ceilings, with main beams that have wide chamfers and scroll-stops, and joists that are set flat and chamfered, also with similar stops. Each room features a large open fireplace with a plain timber lintel and traces of tuck-pointing on the brickwork. There is a newel stair beside the stack and another stair in the service area, which is divided into two sections. The room above the service rooms is not accessible from the rest of the upper floor and was likely used as a cheese room originally.

The main posts have long arched braces that have been removed, and there are cambered tie-beams with arched braces at the corners of the side and end walls. Remains of diamond mullioned windows can also be seen. On the rear wall, there is one 3-light 18th-century casement window with square leaded panes. The roof features clasped purlins, diminished principals, and windbraces, with assembly marks visible on the trusses. The 17th-century cross-wing has five bays and an end chimney stack, with plain framing exposed. One upper room contains a window with ovolo-moulded mullions. The roof of the cross-wing is in four bays with clasped side purlins and numbered principals, which have been altered.
