Lambs Farmhouse

Lamb's Farmhouse is a house dating from the early 16th century, with a stack added in the early 17th century, extended in the early 19th century, and altered in the 20th century. It features a timber frame that is plastered and has a half hipped thatched roof. The building has a small five-bay, three-cell cross passage plan that has been modified to include a lobby entrance. It is two storeys high throughout.

The lobby entrance is located to the left of the centre and includes a boarded architraved door, along with a 19th-century gabled trellissed porch that has cusped bargeboarding. The windows are a mix of 19th and 20th-century three-light glazing bar casements, with two lights in the service bay to the right. There are traces of panelled pargetting with a zigzag pattern that can still be seen. An axial ridge stack has been inserted towards the left in the parlour.

At the rear left, there is a lean-to addition made of clay lump and pantiles, and at the rear right, there is a two-storey service addition made of early 19th-century red brick and clay lump with pantiles, which has a door towards the front, along with a further one-storey addition.

Inside, the house features close studding, with the hall containing a stop chamfered cross axial binding beam and a chamfered mid-rail. There are restored four-centred arched door heads leading to the screens passage, and a single four-centred arched headed chamfered doorway to the service end, which has a trimmer joist for the original stairs. The windows include three and four-light diamond, square, and rectangular mullioned openings. A chamfered four-centred arched gauged brick fireplace has replaced the original smoke hood. The reduced parlour has a stop chamfered cross axial binding beam and storey posts.

On the first floor, there are arched braces to the open truss, reverse curved arched bracing in the closed trusses and in the walling, and chamfered tie beams, which have always been ceiled. The roof features a crown post with square posts that have cranked arched braces to the collar purlin, and downward cranked braces to the tie beams, with a gap for the original smoke hood.
