Description
Woolton Farmhouse is an L-shaped timber-framed building that dates from the 17th century or earlier, which was refaced with red brick in the 18th century. It features a tiled roof with two gabled dormers. The east elevation includes a late 17th to early 18th-century chimneystack with tumbling-in, and the gable end also exhibits tumbling-in. There are three blocked windows, one of which has a hood moulding. The doorcase is adorned with fluted pilasters and a projecting cornice, although it has been incorporated into a modern extension.
