Description

The Limes is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century, featuring a 19th-century Gothick facade and a mid-20th-century extension at the rear. The building has an L-shaped plan and is constructed with a timber frame and roughcast render, topped with a roof made of modern plain tiles. It stands two storeys high with an attic and follows a three-cell plan. The facade includes four windows, each with two or three tall vertical lights that have pointed glazing bars in the upper panes, and timber hood moulds above them. The entrance is a lobby with a colourwashed brick gabled porch that has bargeboards and a spike finial, leading to a modern boarded and battened door. Internally, there is a stack with three 19th-century square flues arranged diamondwise with oversailing caps, along with a small external stack on the left-hand gable.
