Description

Church Farmhouse is a farmhouse that was once the rectory, dating from the 17th century with a facade added in the mid to late 19th century. The building is timber framed and plastered, featuring painted panels and painted quoins that give the appearance of rustication, topped with a plain tiled roof. It has two storeys and an attic, following a two-cell plan. The facade includes three windows, which are three-light small pane casements with pointed heads, and there are hood moulds above the ground floor windows. The entrance is a lobby with a gabled porch and a four-panel door, also with a hood mould above it. There is an internal stack and a single-storey service wing at the rear.

It experiences an average of 19 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 81% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
