Description
West End Farmhouse is a farmhouse, likely built in the late 16th century or early 17th century. It has one storey and attics, featuring a three-cell cross-entry plan. The structure is timber-framed and roughcast, with some areas of false half-timbering. The roof is thatched and includes two plain-tiled casement dormers. There is an axial chimney made of red brick from the 18th or 19th century, along with a 19th-century gable chimney on the right side. The windows are three-light casements from the 20th century, and there is a boarded door from the 20th century located at the cross-entry position.
