Description
Brickhill Farmhouse is a Cottage Orne that has been extended and is now a house. It dates from the early 18th century, with late 19th-century extensions. The building features roughcast walls with smooth stucco quoins and a high roughened stone plinth. The later walls are made of red brick in stretcher bond, with cambered openings. The roof is tiled, with hipped ends on the original section and a tall Tudor stack that has three diagonal flues on a rectangular base.
The farmhouse is a rectangular block that consists of a tall single storey above a basement, which creates a two-storeyed effect at the north end. On the long south side, there are two Gothic windows that are symmetrically placed. The wall at the north end forms a half hexagon and features a central small Gothic window. At the west end, there is an open porch in a half hexagonal shape, set on a semi-circle of stone steps and supported by four rustic columns made from cedar trunks.
At the rear, a former catslide roof above an outshot is concealed in the middle by a late 19th-century two-storeyed extension in a vernacular style, resulting in a T-shape overall. There are also two small 20th-century outshots, one of which is a porch. The original part of the farmhouse has Gothic-style casement windows, and the doorways are plain, with the one in the portico being off centre and featuring Gothic panels.
