Description
Smallwood Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 16th century or early 17th century. It has a three-cell plan and stands two storeys high with attics. The structure is timber-framed and rendered, topped with a thatched roof that is hipped at the right end and features a gabled thatched dormer. There is an axial chimney made of red brick with twin flattened-hexagon flues. The windows are mainly late 18th century mullioned and transomed casements. A 20th-century gabled entrance porch with a glazed panelled door has been added to the front. At the rear, there is a timber-framed and thatched wing that was likely added in the 17th century.
