Description
Park Farmhouse is a former farmhouse dating to the mid-17th century. It is constructed with a timber frame, now rendered, and has a plain tiled roof. The building originally comprised two cells, following a lobby entry layout. It is two storeys high with an attic. The front facade features two windows, which are 20th-century 4-light casements with square-leaded glass. A mid-20th century gabled porch, featuring a moulded doorframe and a reproduction plank door, has been added. The stack retains an original red brick shaft with a moulded brick course below the cap. A two-storey rear wing, built of colourwashed brick and covered with a pantiled roof, is likely of 20th-century origin. The interior was not inspected during the listing process.
