Description
Moat Farm House is a mid-17th century house that has been cased and altered in the 18th century and further modified and extended in the 20th century. It features a timber frame largely covered in red brick and is plastered. The house has a steeply pitched pantiled roof and consists of three bays and two cells with end stacks. It has two storeys and an attic.
On the ground floor, the original entrance, which was located to the left towards the service end, is now blocked and replaced with a 2-light casement. The current entrance is situated to the right of centre within a 20th-century gabled porch. The central section has a 3-light glazing bar casement, while to the left is an early architraved leaded casement and to the right is a 20th-century 2-light window. The house has sprocket eaves and two 20th-century 2-light gabled dormers. The right end stack, which serves the parlour, is slightly extruded, with a smaller internal stack on the left end, both aligned on the ridge. There is also a 20th-century cross axial ridge stack to the right of centre, along with offsets to the left end and the rear right. At the rear, there are 20th-century additions of one and two storeys.
Inside, the parlour features a triangle and indented stop-chamfered axial binding beam, while the first floor has a bar stop-chamfered axial binding beam. The roof structure includes lower butt purlins and upper clasped purlins.
