Description
Slough Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 15th or 16th century. It has two storeys and a three-cell plan, with a cross-wing on the right that is probably an addition from the 16th or 17th century. The building is timber framed and plastered, featuring plaintiled roofs; the left end has a hipped roof and a gable. The cross-wing includes carved bargeboards, which are a modern reproduction of a 19th-century style from around 1980. There is an axial chimney made of red brick that dates to the 16th or 17th century. The windows are 19th century or early 20th century casements, and there is a mid-20th century door at the cross-entry with 12 panels. The interior has not been examined.
