Ashurst Farmhouse

Ashurst Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century. It is timber framed, with the ground floor finished in painted brick laid in Flemish bond and the first floor featuring exposed studding and plaster infilling. The roof is covered with plain tiles. The main range has a two-storey wing or large porch at the center of the front, which jetties out on shaped brackets. The studding is broadly spaced, and there are two tension braces on the front of the porch and one on the right end. The roof is hipped to the right, and there is a central brick ridge stack along with a rear stack on the right. The windows are arranged irregularly, including one two-light ovolo-moulded mullion window on the left end, a four-light casement next to it on the right, a three-light oriel window with a rendered ogee base at the front of the porch, and a two-light casement towards the right end of the main range. There is also a painted brick lean-to on the right side. The interior has not been inspected.
