Description

Float Farmhouse is a late 15th century timber-framed building that was refaced in the 18th century with red brick on the ground floor and weather-boarding above. The first floor of the northeast front still oversails on a moulded bressummer. The house has a hipped tiled roof and features casement windows. It is two storeys tall with an attic, containing four windows and one hipped dormer.
