Description
Cherry Tree Farmhouse is a former farmhouse dating from the mid or late 16th century, with extensions from the 17th century. It was originally built with a two-cell end-chimney plan and has one storey plus attics. The structure is timber-framed and pebble-dashed, topped with a concrete plaintiled roof that is half-hipped at the service end on the right. The house features gabled casement dormers and a 19th-century axial chimney made of red brick. The windows are late 20th-century horizontal sliding sashes with small panes. There is a 20th-century entrance porch located at the cross-passage, which has a gabled roof and a glazed two-panelled door. Inside, heavy unchamfered first-floor joists are exposed in the hall and service room, and there is a complete coupled rafter roof. An additional parlour was constructed to the left of the large external chimney in the early or mid 17th century, featuring a clasped-purlin roof. A short wing was added behind the service end in the 17th or 18th century.
