Description

Willow Farm House is a house dating from the early to mid 17th century, with a 19th-century extension. It features a timber frame that is plastered, topped by a steeply pitched roof covered in glazed pantiles. The house has a three-cell lobby entry plan and is two storeys tall with an attic.

On the ground floor, there is a plinth and an entrance located to the left of centre, which consists of a half-glazed, half-panelled door framed with an architrave. The windows are glazing bar cross casements, all fitted with hoodboards. The first floor has two-light glazing bar casements, and above the entrance is a small cusped lancet window with facetted spandrels. The eaves are boxed, and there is an axial ridge stack. The attic features lights in the gable ends, and the right gable is weatherboarded.

At the rear right, there is a short two-storey kitchen/dairy wing from the 19th century made of clay lump, which has a door in its outer elevation. The interior has not been inspected.
