Description
Quaker Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century or earlier. It has one storey and attics, featuring a three-cell plan. The structure is timber-framed and roughcast, topped with a thatched roof that includes three eyebrow casement dormers added in 1986. There is an axial chimney made of 17th-century red brick, along with an 18th-century service chimney on the left-hand gable. The casements were also installed in 1986. The entrance features a four-panelled half-glazed door and a modern open gabled porch with a plain tiled roof supported by posts. The interior has not been examined.
