Description

Northmore Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, with alterations made around 1930. It features a two-cell layout that was originally a lobby-entrance plan. The building has two storeys and attics, constructed with timber framing and rendered surfaces, adorned with early 20th-century fan-pattern pargetting. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has a large axial chimney made of gault brick. The windows are early 20th-century small-pane casements, and there is a glazed entrance door. Inside, there is a large open fireplace in the hall, and the close-studding is exposed. The early 20th-century extensions on the north and west sides, as well as the long wing next to North End Road, are not considered of special interest.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
