Description
Church Farmhouse, dating from the early 19th century, is a two-storied house constructed with whitewashed stucco. It comprises two parallel ranges, with the north range slightly lower than the south. The front range features seven sash windows, with the central three arranged within a full-height, canted stucco bay. The house is roofed with slate, hipped at the ends. Sash windows with glazing bars are also present on the rear range. A section of exposed 17th-century timber framing on the west end reveals an earlier core to the building. The farmhouse is set within a group that includes the boundary wall to the former West Cheam Manor House, Lumley Chapel, the Church of St Dunstan, the lychgate, and numbers 1 to 4 Church Road.
