Description

Buck's Green Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century for the right-hand cell and rear wing, with the remainder built in the 18th century. It features a timber frame, with the facade and left gable end covered in roughcast render, while the rest is plastered. The roof is pantiled. The main range has two storeys and an attic, arranged in a three-cell form, with a 1½-storey service wing at the rear. There are three windows: 19th-century casements on the first floor and mid-20th-century casements without glazing bars on the ground floor. The entrance is a lobby with a mid-20th-century gabled porch and door. Inside, there is an internal stack with a cement-rendered shaft and an 18th-century stack against the rear wall of the main range, located within the service wing. The parlour cell features plain flat joists and an original roof with a single row of wind-braced clasped purlins. The rest of the main range beyond the stack has thin studding and straight primary braces, with the roof constructed from reused rafters. Some plain joists are set flat in the service range.
