Description
Newhouse Farmhouse is a house that dates from the 16th century and was remodeled in the 18th century. It is timber framed and roughcast, with a plain tiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, set on a plinth with a moulded fascia board that conceals a 16th-century bresummer. The hipped roof features paired modillion eaves and three hipped dormers, with chimney stacks clustered to the centre right and projecting at the end left.
On the first floor, there are five wooden casements, alternating between three and two lights, while the ground floor includes a canted bay to the left and two tripartite glazing bar sashes in the centre and to the right. The entrance door, located to the left and accessed by three steps, consists of six moulded panels and is topped with a traceried semi-circular fanlight and an open pediment supported by Doric columns. The left side of the building has a plastered first floor sitting on a painted brick base.
