Castle Farmhouse

Castle Farmhouse is a farmhouse with a core dating back to the 15th century, featuring alterations from the early 17th century and early 19th century. It has a three-cell lobby-entrance plan and stands one and a half storeys tall with attics. The building is timber-framed and pebble-dashed, topped with a slated roof that includes a red brick axial chimney. The windows are mainly 20th-century casements, and there is a 20th-century panelled entrance door.

The core of the farmhouse consists of a two-cell open hall house with twin service rooms, which have a lodged upper floor structure at the left-hand end. There are fragmentary remains of the original coupled-rafter roof, showing smoke-blackening above the open hall. An upper floor was inserted into the hall in the early 17th century, and a new parlour block was built at the right-hand end, complete with a chimney that serves open fireplaces in both the hall and parlour. The roof was renewed in a clasped-purlin style. An ovolo-moulded mullioned window can be seen in the parlour. Additionally, a two-storey rear wing was added in the early 19th century.
