Description
A farmhouse dating to the 17th century, with 19th and 20th-century extensions. The house is built using a mix of brick and timber frame construction, with brick infill panels and tiled roofs. The original 17th-century section runs east to west, with a 19th-century extension to the east and a larger 20th-century extension to the south. The farmhouse is one and a half storeys high, featuring three gables on the north side and a large ridge chimney situated between the central and west gables. The north elevation displays a 19th-century brick extension to the left, featuring a 3-light casement window on the ground floor and in the gable. To the right is a 2-bay timber frame section with 3-light casement windows in each gable, and a plain boarded door with a pent roof.
