Mill Post Farmhouse

Mill Post Farmhouse is a house, formerly a farmhouse, dating from the late 16th century and restored around 1980. It has one and a half storeys with attics and a three-cell plan. The structure is timber-framed and rendered, with the front wall rebuilt in the 19th century using red brick, which is now colour-washed. The roof is thatched, with the right-hand end hipped, and features axial and gable chimneys made of red brick. There is a flat-headed casement dormer and 2-light casements with segmental brick arches. A 20th-century gabled brick entrance porch leads to a boarded door. This farmhouse is a typical example of a 16th-century three-cell house, with exposed internal framing, an axial chimney serving the hall and parlour, and a well-crafted clasped-purlin roof that was originally hipped at both ends.
