Description
Dairy Farmhouse is a house dating from the late 17th century. It has one-and-a-half storeys and attics, featuring a three-cell lobby entrance plan. The structure is timber-framed and rendered, with large 19th-century rough-cast panels. The roof is thatched, with plain tiled gabled casement dormers and an axial chimney made of red brick. The windows are 20th-century casements. The entrance door, from the early 19th century, has an architrave and six fielded panels. Above the entrance, there is a Norwich fire insurance sign set in an oval rendered cartouche.
