Stone Farmhouse

Stone Farmhouse is a building that was originally constructed as cottages and has now been converted into a house. It dates back to the 15th or early 16th century, with alterations made in the 17th century and a facade added in the late 18th or early 19th century. The structure is timber framed, with the front elevation featuring red and grey brick in a Sussex-type bond to the left of the door, English bond to the right of the door, and a mixed bond at the right end. The roof is covered with plain tiles and is hipped to the left while gabled to the right. The farmhouse has two low storeys built on flint footings and shows slight evidence of an underbuilt gable-end jetty to the left.

The building has an open hall consisting of two timber-framed bays, with a storeyed end bay to the left; however, the storeyed right end bay no longer exists. A brick ridge stack is located towards the left end of the shorter left hall bay. The fenestration is irregular, featuring one two-light casement window in the right hall bay, with no windows in the left or centre. The ground floor includes one six-pane light to the left end, and one three-light and one single-light window in the right hall bay. A boarded door is situated behind an open timber-framed porch that has a gabled plain tile roof under the stack. There are also boarded doors with flat bracketed hoods at the rear, to the right and left of the stack.

Inside, the farmhouse has broad axial joists that are morticed for a central partition in the left end bay. The left end-of-hall beam is moulded and morticed for a partition with a central pair of doorheads and a doorway towards the rear end. There is an inserted cross beam to the right side of the stack and a chamfered axial beam supporting the inserted hall floor. A moulded and cambered central-truss tie-beam features a hollow-chamfered arch brace, and there are brick fireplaces with wooden bressumers.
