Description
Holly Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates back to the early 16th century or earlier, with alterations made in the late 19th and late 20th centuries. The building is timber framed, with the ground floor clad in red brick laid in Flemish bond and the first floor hung with fishscale tiles. It features a plain tile roof and stands two storeys high, with a cellar located under the right end. The roof is steeply pitched and hipped, with gablets. The windows are arranged irregularly, consisting of three 2-light casements. There are four doors from the 20th century: one half-glazed door on the left, one ribbed door in the centre, and two half-glazed doors at the right end. Additionally, there are lean-tos at each end of the building. The interior has not been inspected.
