Description

Upper Farm Farmhouse is a farmhouse with a late 18th century front elevation that conceals a 17th century structure at the rear. The building features a wide plinth made of coursed rubble stone, with coursed rubble stone above that is accented by red brick dressings. The roof is plain tiled with corbelled brick eaves, two hipped dormers, and end stacks. The farmhouse has two storeys and an attic, with three windows that are glazing bar sashes set in segment-headed surrounds. The central entrance is a 19th century half-glazed and panelled door, which is sheltered by a projecting porch.
