Description
Snape Farm House is a farmhouse dating from the early to mid 17th century, possibly with earlier origins, and was refronted and re-roofed in the 19th century. The structure features a timber frame that is plastered, with a red brick front and a black glazed pantiled roof. It has a three-cell lobby entry plan and stands two storeys high with an attic. The entrance is located to the right of centre and consists of a part-glazed six-panelled door. The windows are three-light glazing bar casements on the ground floor, with segmental heads, and there is a white brick course at the eaves. A central two-light box dormer is present on the roof.
The house has a large axial ridge stack to the right of centre, positioned between the hall and parlour, with a base that rises well above the ridge and features three conjoined hexagonal shafts. There is an internal service stack at the left end and two-light casements on the right end. At the rear, there are mixed glazing bar casements and another two-light box dormer.
Inside, much of the frame is concealed, but on the left or service end, there is a post of large scantling with a mortice that may have been for an early arched brace, along with stop-chamfered cross beams and axial binding beams. In the parlour, there is a bar stop-chamfered axial binding beam. Additionally, a lean-to outshut is attached to the service end, which connects to a 19th-century outbuilding made of flint and red brick, featuring a hipped pantiled roof and two doors on the brick front.
