Description

Warrington Place Farmhouse is a house that was originally a farmhouse, believed to date from 1604. It is a two-bay building that was extended by an additional bay to the left in the early 18th century and refronted and refenestrated in the mid-20th century. A one-storey extension was added to the right. The building is timber-framed and refronted in painted brick on the ground floor, with tile-hanging on the first floor. It features a half-hipped old tiled roof with an off-centre 17th-century brick chimneystack and a 19th-century external chimneystack to the right. The house has two storeys and attics, with three windows that are 20th-century casements with leaded lights, and probably a 20th-century plank door.

At the rear, there is a catslide roof along with one flat-roofed and one gabled dormer. The 20th-century extension is made of painted brick with a tiled roof. Inside, the dining room has a ledged door, while the central room features a date of 1651 on the bressumer and a spine beam with a one and a half inch chamfer and lamb's tongue stops. There is a plank door with a pintle hinge, and another room has a chamfered beam and exposed floor joists. The kitchen contains two plank doors with iron pintles. On the first floor, the central room has oak floorboards and an original bressumer, along with a chamfered spine beam with lamb's tongue stops and exposed curved braces. There are further plank doors with pintle hinges. The roof includes purlins and diagonal braces, and there is a weatherboarded partition with handmade nails.
