Description
Mountain Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century or 17th century, with a 19th-century facade. It is timber framed and clad with weatherboarding, topped by a plain tile roof. The building has two storeys and a garret, with a half-hipped roof on the left (east) side and a hipped roof on the right. There is a multiple brick ridge stack located to the left of the centre. The windows are arranged irregularly, featuring one small three-light casement on the right and no windows on the left on the first floor. The ground floor includes a small 12-paned light to the left, one three-light casement to the right, and one three-light louvred window, possibly for a dairy, at the right end. The entrance consists of a boarded door with a flat bracketed hood situated under the stack. At the rear, there is a lean-to constructed of chequered red and grey brick. The interior has not been inspected.
