Description
Pound Farmhouse is a late 16th and early 17th century farmhouse, with later additions to the north. The house is timber-framed, largely covered in 19th-century colourwashed brick, with one gable end weatherboarded. It has a pantiled roof. The building is two storeys high with an attic. The south side has a range of three 19th-century square-leaded casement windows with segmental arches, and a 19th-century door that provides access to a cross-passage. Other casement windows are present, some with older leaded glass. A lobby entrance is on the north side, featuring a 19th-century gabled porch with a boarded door and a three-centre arched fanlight. The house contains an internal stack. Inside, the timber frame is mostly hidden behind paper, but the original layout remains. The parlour features four intersecting ovolo-moulded floor beams forming a square central panel, with no beams spanning from wall to wall, resembling a ceiling at Cockfield Hall in Yoxford. A newel staircase is present, the lower flight having been rebuilt.
