Description
Parsonage Farm is a farmhouse that dates from the 17th century or earlier. It features a timber frame and has red and grey brick in a mixed bond on both floors to the left of the door. The right side of the door has a ground floor made of red brick, while the first floor is hung with banded plain and fishscale tiles. Both floors are tile-hung on the left gable end. The roof is covered with plain tiles and is hipped, with a gablet on the left side. There is a multiflue brick stack towards the left end and a slender projecting brick stack on the right gable end. The building has an irregular arrangement of three casement windows: one two-light window to the left, one three-light window towards the center, and one single-light window to the right. A boarded door is located in a small gabled porch beneath the stack. There is a 20th-century rear wing on the right side. The interior has not been inspected.
