Description
Water Run Farmhouse is a former farmhouse that has been converted into two cottages. It dates from the early 17th century, with the possibility of an earlier core. The building has a three-cell cross-entry plan and stands two storeys tall. It is timber-framed and plastered, with the left gable underbuilt in painted brick. The roof is pantiled, having originally been thatched. There is an axial chimney from the early 17th century, made of buff brick with the upper part in red brick. The windows are mainly three-light casements, with one on the first storey retaining its unaltered 18th-century form, while others have been altered in the 19th and 20th centuries. There are two entrance doorways: one at the cross-entry and the other to the right, featuring early 19th-century boarded doors, architraves, and an open cornice. The interior has not been examined.
