Description
Street Farmhouse is a house dating from the early 17th century, with alterations made in the 20th century. It features a timber frame that is plastered and has a steeply pitched pantiled roof. The layout is a broad two-cell lobby entry plan, with one storey and an attic. On the ground floor, the entrance is slightly to the right of the center and includes a recessed boarded architraved door with a small hood. There are three and four-light glazing bar casements with hoodboards, as well as two-light gabled dormers. A central axial stack is positioned in front of the ridge, and the gable ends reveal exposed plates and purlins. At the rear left, there is a 20th-century extension. Inside, much of the frame is concealed, but there is a stop-chamfered axial binding beam on the left and a double ovolo moulded and filletted bar stopped cross axial binding beam on the right, along with jowled posts.
