Description
Bulltown Farmhouse is a house dating from the mid-16th century and the 18th century. It features a timber frame, with some areas showing exposed close studding and plaster infill, while other parts are clad in red brick and painted brick. The upper floors are tile hung, and there is a rear extension made of red brick. The roof is plain tiled and has a three-part cross passage plan, although the parlour wing has been destroyed. The house is two storeys high with an attic, set on a ragstone plinth, and has a continuous jetty supported by a moulded bressumer on brackets to the left and centre, and on a dragon post to the right. The hipped roof includes two hipped dormers and a central stack cluster. There are two three-light wooden casements on each floor, with a small central light on the first floor, and a central panelled door framed by a moulded architrave. Originally, the house also had a jetty on the right return, but the ground floor has since been built out. The single-storey and attic rear wing has a hipped roof and a large central stack. Inside, there is a very large inglenook fireplace in the rear range, a four-centred arched doorway that is not quite aligned with the front entrance, and chamfered stopped beams. It has been reported that there are mullioned windows behind the tile hanging and a lined chamber between the floors.
