Description

Mote Farmhouse is an 18th-century farmhouse constructed of red brick. It features an eaves-bracketed gutter that supports a plain tiled roof, which has end stacks and three hipped dormers. The building has two storeys and four windows, although the second window from the left on the first floor is blocked. The first-floor windows are casements, while the ground floor has glazing bar sashes set in segment head surrounds. The central entrance consists of a panelled door with an archlight above and a flat hood. The sides of the building are made of coursed rubble stone. To the north-east, there is a rear wing built of coursed rubble stone with red brick dressings.
