Description
Wood Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that was refaced in 1804, with later additions made to the west. The structure is timber framed with a later brick facing and extensions. It features an old tile roof that is half hipped to the right, with a catslide and a stack at the rear. The building has two gabled cross wings on the left, each with two end stacks and an additional stack at the rear, as well as an end stack on the left. The farmhouse consists of two framed bays, with one framed bay cross wing to the left, and it stands two storeys tall.
On the north front, the first floor has a three-light, segmental-headed, leaded casement window in the left-hand cross wing, while the ground floor features a half-glazed door with sidelights. The right-hand cross wing has a segmental-headed casement window on the first floor and two ground floor, two-light segmental-headed casements. There is also a three-light leaded casement in the return wall of the right-hand cross wing, a three-light ground floor segmental-headed leaded casement to the right, accompanied by a boarded door and a gabled porch to the left. Additionally, there are two first floor, three-light leaded casements set back to the right, with three ground floor, four-light segmental-headed leaded casements below.
