Description

Green Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse with a later wing added to the rear. It features colourwashed brick and a pantiled roof, standing two storeys high with an attic. The building has a three-cell layout and includes three windows with three-light mullion and transom casements from the 19th and 20th centuries, mostly with large panes. There is an internal stack that has been rebuilt and a smaller gable stack to the right, which is set forward of the roof ridge. To the right, there is a single-storey wing, and the entrance door is located at the rear. The interior has been largely modernised, but it retains some ovolo-moulded floorbeams. The roof structure includes two rows of butt purlins.
