Description
Green Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. It is timber framed with colourwashed render and a 20th-century plain tiled roof, likely previously thatched. The building is composed of a single-storey range with an attic (dating to the 17th century) and a two-storey range with an attic (dating to the 18th century).
The front of the farmhouse has a lower range of two bays on the right side, with a 3-light 19th-century casement window to the ground floor on the left, and a 6-light window to the right. Two 3-light gabled dormer windows are located above on the attic floor. A two-flue stack is situated on the ridge, slightly to the left of centre. The 18th-century range on the left features a 6-panel flush door centrally placed, with a 3-light 19th-century casement window to its right and two similar windows to its left. The first floor has three 3-light 19th-century casement windows. A further three 2-light gabled dormer windows are set into the attic roof. A ridge stack with two flues is located to the left of centre. The left-hand gable end has a 19th-century half-glazed door on the ground floor, with two lower flush panels and three upper glazed panes, a moulded surround, and a 5 x 4 pane sash window above on the first floor. The right-hand gable end has a 19th-century casement window.
The rear of the 17th-century range on the left has a stable door flanked by 3-light casement windows. Two skylights are fitted into the attic roof. The 18th-century range on the right has a ½-glazed doorway with an overlight, a 3-light 19th-century casement window to its right, and two similar windows to its left. The first floor has two 3-light windows on the left and a 2-light casement above the doorway. Four skylights are fitted into the attic roof.
Internally, the lower 17th-century range has chamfered ceiling beams at ground floor level, and the 18th-century range has slender pine beams.
