Description

Church Farmhouse is an early 17th century timber-framed farmhouse. The external walls are now covered with modern textured render. The roof is tiled with plain tiles to the front and pantiles to the rear. The house has two storeys and an attic, originally comprising three rooms arranged around a lobby entry. It now has three windows, which are large-paned casements dating to the mid-20th century. A mid-20th century entrance door leads into the cross-passage, and there are double-glazed doors to the left. An internal brick stack with a plain square shaft is largely original, while an external stack is located on the right gable, positioned slightly forward of the ridge. The interior has been modernised, but in the hall and at the service end there are original, plain joists. The first floor has plain studding. The rear wall of the house includes three original, blocked window openings, each featuring separate lintols pegged into the frame, which is an unusual detail. A cupboard with an arched head in the rear wall of the parlour dates to the early 19th century. The farmhouse is surrounded by a medieval moat.
