Description
Goldwell Farmhouse is an L-shaped building located on Tenterden Road in Biddenden. The north wing dates from the 17th century or earlier and features a timber frame that has been refaced with painted red brick on the ground floor, while the upper part is tile hung. The farmhouse has two storeys and attics, topped with a tiled roof that includes one dormer. It has two casement windows and an 18th-century door with six fielded panels, which likely originated from a town as it is marked with the number 18.
