Description
Bridgehurst Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century. The ground floor is constructed of red and grey brick in English bond, while the first floor is tile-hung. It has a plain tile roof and stands two storeys high with a garret. The building features a brick plinth and a half-hipped roof, with a red and grey brick stack located to the left of the centre. The windows are arranged irregularly, consisting of two three-light casements with top lights. To the right of the stack, there is a door with flush panels, two top lights, and a flat bracketed hood.
To the left, there is a short, lower two-storey addition that was formerly a dairy, featuring a weatherboarded ground floor, a tile-hung first floor, and a half-hipped plain tile roof, with one three-light casement. Adjacent to this is a gabled single-storey addition with a panelled door. The rear of the farmhouse includes three short wings, one with a gabled roof and two with hipped roofs, as well as a lean-to to the left.
The interior has only been partly inspected but includes a chamfered axial beam and a plain painted brick fireplace with a wooden bressumer in the right ground-floor room. There are attic stairs located behind the stack, and a late 18th-century open well staircase with vase balusters and a plain handrail is situated in a rectangular timber-framed stair turret at the rear of the stack. The roof features staggered butt purlins.
