Barretts Green Farmhouse

Barretts Green Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 15th century, with alterations and extensions made in the late 16th century and clad in the early 18th century. It features a timber frame and is tile hung on a ground floor made of red and blue brick, with the brickwork arranged in different bonds and builds. The roof is plain tiled. The building is designed as a hall house, which has been partly rebuilt to a lobby entry plan. It stands two storeys tall, with a hipped roof on the left side that steps up and is half-hipped on the right, and a stack located to the centre left. There are three wooden casements on the first floor and two on the ground floor, with the left-side windows on each floor set at a lower level. A boarded door is positioned to the centre left, and there is a catslide outshot at the rear.

Inside, the earlier hipped section of the roof shows soot blackened rafters, and there is a staggered purlin in the 16th-century half-glazed roof. The frame is visible, featuring tension-braced large panels in the earlier section. The later section includes a massive chamfered spine beam. A very large stack made of dressed sandstone supports a 13-foot wide inglenook with a chamfered bressummer. The upper storey has a brick fireplace with a chamfered wooden bressummer, and a stone fireplace with chamfered jambs, which are stopped half-height with a fleur-de-lys design. A wooden newel stair leads to the attic, which is dated 1738.
