Description

Pitchers Green Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that stands one and a half storeys high with attics. It features a lobby-entrance plan and is constructed with a timber frame that is rendered. The roof is covered with plain tiles and includes 19th-century monopitched casement dormers, along with an axial chimney made of red brick. The windows are 19th-century small-pane wrought iron casements, and the entrance door is located at the gable end. The layout follows a typical three-cell plan, with an additional unheated room next to the parlour that may have served as a shop. The service end of the farmhouse is a later addition, likely rebuilt larger in the 18th century. A plain-tiled rear wing was added in 1862, as indicated by a tablet on the gable chimney.
