Whisketts Farmhouse

Whisketts Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 16th century or earlier, with cladding added between the mid-18th century and mid-19th century. It features a timber frame, with red brick on the ground floor and ornamental tile hanging on the first floor, topped by a plain tiled roof. The house likely originated as a hall house and consists of two storeys and a basement on a plinth, with a hipped roof and chimney stacks located at the centre right and projecting at the end left.

On the first floor, there are four leaded wooden casements with two and three lights, while the ground floor has three windows with two and four lights. A boarded door is positioned to the centre right, and there is a basement opening to the right. To the right of the main structure, there is a single-storey hipped extension from the 20th century.

Inside, the house is fully framed, with the roof having been rebuilt in the mid-18th century. It retains tie beams with crown post mortices and soot blacking, suggesting the presence of a smoke bay. A late 17th-century stack, with a 19th-century exterior, is made of dressed sandstone and features a stone inglenook that has been repaired with red brick. The cellar is notable, being stone-lined with stone steps and corbels to support the floor joists. It has a flagstone and old brick paviour floor with drainage channels and a raised surround for an internal spring basin.
