Description

Snoad Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century and early 17th century. It is primarily timber-framed, now mostly covered in painted brick laid in Flemish bond, with a section of tile-hanging beneath the central first-floor window. The roof is made of plain tiles and features two storeys on a brick plinth, with remnants of broadly-spaced close-studding visible on the first floor. The front elevation has a continuous jetty that originally extended along the left end but is now entirely underbuilt. The roof is hipped, and there is a multiple brick ridge stack located off-centre to the left.

The building has an irregular arrangement of six windows, including three 19th-century casements—one in each inland position and one central—along with a single light beneath the stack and two small two-light mullion windows flanking the centre, all retaining their original cills. The latter two windows likely served as frieze windows for a central oriel window, for which mortices are still visible. A boarded door is positioned towards the right end of the facade. At the rear, there is a close-studded early 17th-century stair turret behind the stack, along with a lean-to structure from the 18th or 19th century.

Inside, the farmhouse features plain original doorheads, exposed timbers, and geometric wall-painting in red and yellow ochre on plaster above the fireplace in the left end ground floor room, which is likely contemporary to the building. The interior has only been partially inspected.
