Description
Geddinge Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 16th century or earlier, with extensions and cladding added in the 17th and 18th centuries. It features a timber frame clad with red brick, some of which is laid in English bond, and the right side has a brick and flint chequer work. The roof is plain tiled. The house is designed as a four-bay hall with a cross wing and is two storeys high. It has a projecting hipped wing on the left and stacks on the left side and at the end right.
On the first floor, there are three tripartite sashes and a single sash window to the centre left. The ground floor has two cambered tripartite sashes with a central wooden casement. There is a boarded door in a cambered opening to the centre left, which has become misshapen due to subsidence. The brickwork on this elevation was built in phases and is not bonded together. The left wing sits on a flint plinth and is made of irregular bond brick, with the upper stage rebuilt in the 18th century using some blue brick. The end elevation features metal casements, a segmental wooden casement, and a half-glazed door in a re-entrant.
The left return has a weatherboarded outshot with an external boarded loft door and segmental-headed doorways. The right return showcases fine 16th-century brickwork with lozenge-shaped flint panels, a moulded plinth, an offset and moulded stack, and blocked hollow chamfered mullioned windows. The rear elevation has some Header and English bond brickwork at the base.
Inside, the farmhouse displays a full and possibly early frame of large scantling visible in both wings, large inglenook fireplaces, and a fine moulded brick and rendered fireplace at the end right, which features a hollow chamfered four-centred arch with shield spandrels.
