Naccolt Farmhouse and Walls Attached

Naccolt Farmhouse is a house dating from the mid to late 17th century. It is constructed of red brick in English bond and features a plain tiled roof. The building has a three-unit lobby entrance plan and stands two storeys high on a plinth, with a plat band that steps up twice over the doorway. The roof has moulded kneelers and a central left stack. There are two glazing bar sashes on each floor, with a tripartite window in the centre of the ground floor and blocked window spaces to the left on both floors. The entrance features a four-panelled door to the centre left, framed by Tuscan pilasters, a frieze, and a pediment, along with a projecting iron lamp bracket. The return elevations have wooden casements and glazing bar sashes. At the rear, there is a continuous cat slide outshot and short stretches of wall extending from the rear of the house, including a single-storey hipped outhouse with three boarded doors.

Inside, the farmhouse has Baltic pine beams that are moulded and painted. A fine dog leg and half landing stair in the hall features turned balusters and a flat moulded handrail, with a boarded door with strap hinges on the half landing. There is an inglenook with a salt cupboard and arches with decorative doors. The service end is separated from the hall by a horizontally planked timber wall, with boarded doors and rectangular fanlights leading to a dairy with a brick floor and a slatted dividing wall to the cheesery. The upper floor divisions consist of planking and wattle and daub, and the roof has staggered purlins. This house is a larger and possibly earlier counterpart to Troy Town House, sharing a similar plan that was somewhat archaic for the late 17th century, yet it features a remarkable use of Baltic pine. The building retains an extraordinary survival of fittings.
