Description
Westover Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse that was altered in the 20th century. The front of the building is roughcast over rendering, designed to imitate masonry. It features a hipped slate roof with two brick chimneystacks. On the ground floor, there are two tripartite sash windows. The central porch has octagonal columns and round-headed entrances with keystones, leading to a six-panelled door. To the left side, there are remains of a verandah supported by octagonal wooden columns, with hexagonal paving beneath it.
The rear elevation includes a cambered casement window on the first floor and a 12-pane cambered sash window on the ground floor. Attached to the rear is an L-shaped wing, which is part stone and part brick, featuring two cambered casements on the first floor and 20th-century casements on the ground floor, along with a modern porch. The farmhouse was formerly a home farm to Westover and was derelict at the time of the survey in 1988.
