Description
Wey Street Farmhouse is a farmhouse that was originally built in the early 18th century and later remodeled in the mid-19th century. It features a redbrick construction with a plain tiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, set on a plinth, with a plat band and a brick dogtooth eaves cornice beneath a half-hipped roof. There is a projecting hipped wing on the right side, with chimneys at both ends, and two hipped dormers. On the first floor, there are three margin light sash windows, while the ground floor has two tripartite sash windows. The entrance features a round-headed door with six panels, located in a large parapeted porch at the re-entrant angle between the two wings. Additionally, there is a canted two-storey bay on the left return of the building. There are date plaques in the center, though they are obscured, but they indicate an early 18th-century date.
