Valley Farmhouse

Valley Farmhouse is a former farmhouse dating from the early 16th century, with later alterations and 19th-century extensions at the rear. The building is two storeys high, with an attic above only the east end, and has a three-cell layout in the main range. It is timber-framed and rendered, though it was previously exposed, and features a black glazed pantiled roof. There is an internal chimney stack with a plain red brick shaft. The farmhouse has various casement windows and a plank door. In front of the east end of the main range, there is a small single-storey extension made of red brick and flint.

Originally, the basic house was likely a two-cell structure with a cross-entry and an end chimney stack. The third unit was added alongside the current stack, which has two back-to-back hearths on the ground floor. The entrance door's position has been altered, but it was previously separated from the hall by a moulded plank and muntin screen, which remains in place. The room to the west of the former cross-passage has plain unchamfered joists and a chamfered and stopped main beam, and is notably large for a service room, likely serving as an unheated parlour. The main beam and joists of the hall ceiling feature chamfers and curved stops with bars. The roof of this range was significantly raised, likely during the construction of the Victorian extensions, and within the roof space to the west of the stack, there are remnants of two queen-post trusses from the earlier roof.
