Description
Tye Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid 16th century, with alterations made in the mid 20th century. It has a three-cell plan that originally featured a cross-passage entrance, which was later converted to a lobby-entrance form. The building stands two storeys high and is timber framed with plaster. It has a plaintile roof and an axial 17th-century chimney made of red brick. The windows are mainly mid 20th-century casements with leaded lights, and there is a 20th-century gabled plaintiled entrance porch with a boarded and battened door. The timber framing is substantial and unmoulded, with several blocked diamond-mullioned windows. Inside, there are back-to-back open fireplaces in the hall and parlour. An outshut was added to the rear in the 18th century and was extended to the full length of the building in the 19th and 20th centuries.
