Description

Church Farmhouse is a former farmhouse with a late 18th-century front range and work from the 16th to 17th centuries at the rear. It has a double pile plan, with the front range constructed of colourwashed brick featuring a brick dentil eaves cornice and parapet gables with tumbling. The rear is timber framed and plastered. The roof is slated at the front and pantiled at the rear. The building has two storeys and attics, with three windows that are inset sashes with glazing bars set under gauged brick arches; the upper windows are half-height. The ground floor windows have panelled shutters.

The entrance features a good doorway with an inset six-panel raised and fielded door, a segmental fanlight with glazing bars under a keyed arch, panelled reveals, sunk pilasters, and a broken entablature supported by console brackets on shell corbels, topped with an open pediment. There are three dormers with small-paned windows; the central dormer is shallow-gabled while the others have flat roofs. The building has red brick gable stacks.

At the rear, there is a two-cell wing with an internal stack featuring an axial shaft. Inside, there is a straight stair with stick balusters and a ramped handrail. The rear wing shows exposed studs and evidence of diamond-mullioned windows. The lower ceilings have plain joists that are exposed, set flat in the left cell and square in the right cell. The framing in the left cell is more substantial and likely older.
