Description

Bavinge Farm House is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 17th century or earlier, with an early 18th-century facade and later alterations. The building features a chequered pattern of red and grey brick. The left end section has red and grey brick in English bond on the ground floor and Flemish bond on the first floor. It has a plain tile roof and stands two storeys tall. To the left of the door, there is a brick plinth, while to the right, there is a flint plinth topped with brick courses. The roof is hipped, and there are two multiflue red brick stacks: one on the rear slope of the roof towards the centre and a smaller one made of red and grey brick towards the right end. The windows are arranged irregularly, with five in total: a two-light casement at the left end, a multi-pane three-light casement to the left of the stack, a small fifteen-pane light in a blocked large opening under the stack, and a three-light casement on each side of the right stack. There are also three similar three-light casements on the ground floor. The entrance features a ribbed door with a flat floating hood located under the stack. At the rear, there is a brick lean-to. The interior has not been inspected.
