Description
Office Farmhouse is a farmhouse that has been divided into two dwellings. It dates from the later 16th century or early 17th century and has a T-shaped plan. The building is timber framed and plastered, with some areas of colourwashed brick casing on the facade, and it features a pantiled roof. It stands two storeys tall and has mid-20th century large pane casement windows and two mid-20th century boarded doors. There is an internal stack located at the junction of the two ranges. The rear wing showcases some attractive exposed timbering and retains the original newel stairs.
