Description
Breach Farmhouse is likely a 16th century timber-framed building. The front of the house has been plastered, and the first floor juts out over a bressumer and decorative brackets. The south end of the ground floor has been rebuilt using painted brick, with a brick buttress at the northeast corner. The roof is tiled. The north gable end and wall are of painted red brick, with two small brick additions on the ground floor. A 19th century porch is built of flints and brick, featuring a shaped gable. There are blocked mullion windows in the gable end. The chimneys are paired, set diagonally, and have tumbled brickwork.
