Description

High House Farmhouse is a house that was formerly a farmhouse, dating from the late 16th century. It has two storeys and attics, featuring a three-cell cross-passage entrance plan. The structure is timber-framed and plastered, topped with a plaintiled roof that has an axial chimney made of red brick. The windows are mainly 20th-century small-pane casements, and there is a 20th-century gabled plaintiled entrance porch with a six-panelled door. Inside, there are back-to-back open fireplaces in the hall and parlour, with an additional fireplace in the parlour chamber. Some unglazed diamond-mullioned windows, which are fragmentary and blocked, can be found on the first floor, along with another window that has ovolo mullions. The building features arch-braced close studwork and unmoulded exposed timber on the first floor. The roof is wind-braced with clasped purlins and reduced principals. An attic was added over the hall and service end in the 17th century, along with a staircase.
