Description
Triggs Farmhouse is a house dating from the 16th century or earlier. It is timber-framed and tile hung on a red brick base, with rendered elevations on the return and rear sides. The roof is plain tiled. The building is likely a hall house with a cross-wing. It has two storeys and a basement, featuring a hipped and gablet cross-wing to the left, with stacks located at the rear end on the left and at the end on the right.
On the first floor, there is a tripartite sash leaded cross-window and a three-light leaded casement. The ground floor has a three-light mullioned and transomed window to the left, a three-light leaded casement, and a rib and stud door to the centre right. The left return has a brick and sandstone base and a slight jetty on the first floor. There is also a return hipped rear wing. Historically, this was the seat of the Stringer family, and a window pane here is inscribed: "God Bless King William, Hannah Stringer 1695".
