Description
Maypole Farm is a farmhouse that was formerly a public house, dating from the 17th century or early 18th century, and has been altered and extended in the 1930s. The building is constructed of red and grey brick in a mixed bond and features a plain tile roof. It stands two storeys high on a brick plinth and has a plat band. The roof is hipped, with the left hip returning, and there are brick stacks: one at the gable end to the left and another ridge stack towards the right end.
The fenestration is irregular, consisting of five leaded casements. This includes one three-light and two two-light windows to the left of the stack, one three-light window directly under the stack, and one three-light window to the right. The ground-floor windows have segmental heads, and there is a blocked doorway under the third window from the left. To the left of the stack, there is a parallel rear range with two rear hips and a ribbed door. A 1930s rear wing is located behind the stack, with additional wings extending to the right of it. The interior has not been inspected.
