Description

Rookery Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1593, built for the Stebbings family. It is timber framed with colourwashed render and a 20th-century pantile roof, which was originally thatched. The building has two storeys.

On the entrance front, there is an entrance doorway located to the left of centre, featuring a half-glazed 19th-century door. To the left of the door is a 2-light casement window, and to the right are two 3-light casements. On the first floor, there are two 2-light casements to the left and a 3-light casement to the right. A stack with sawtoothed flues is positioned at the ridge, right of centre, above a rectangular base that displays the date and the initials I.S. and M.S. on an octagonal stone.

At the rear, there is a projecting wing on the right side, with a projecting catslide outshut to the right. To the left of this outshut, there is a ground floor doorway and two 2-light casements on the first floor. The right-hand gable end features a 3-light ground floor 20th-century casement and a 2-light window on the first floor.

Inside, the farmhouse has closely-spaced studding in the walls, cambered ceiling beams, and blocked windows with moulded mullions.
