Description
Doves Farmhouse is a 17th-century building that originally served as a farmhouse and has been converted into four farmworkers' cottages. The structure is timber framed, with a 19th-century brick exterior and a pantile roof that was originally thatched. It stands two storeys tall.
On the entrance front, the brick is laid in Flemish bond, featuring a door with six flush panels slightly left of center, flanked by 19th-century casement windows. The first floor has four 3-light casements. There is a large axial ridge stack positioned right of center with two flues.
The left side includes a gabled brick porch on the right, with a cambered arch to the left of which is a 3-light window. The first floor wall is rendered, and there is a jettied gable. A two-storey lean-to is located on the left.
On the right gable end, there is a similar gabled porch on the left, with a 2-light casement window on the ground floor to the right and a single-light window on the first floor, along with a jettied gable. The rear of the building is completely obscured by a two-storey 20th-century outshut that has random fenestration. The interior has not been inspected.
