Description
Parsonage Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse, largely refaced in the 19th century and with a 20th-century addition to the east. It is constructed of red brick with grey brick headers, a plinth, and a plat band. The roof is tiled, with a stack at the left end and another in front of the ridge, off-centre to the right. The farmhouse is two storeys high. The first floor has two 20th-century casement windows to the left, with a blank window below a stack to the right. On the ground floor, there are three 20th-century cross windows with segmental heads to the left. A single 3-light 20th-century casement window is present on each floor of the 20th-century addition to the right. The main entrance is on the west side. Internally, there are remains of timber framing, including chamfered beam with run-out stops.
