Description
Old Farm Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with an extension from the 18th century. It is constructed of coursed clunch rubble with some brick dressings, topped with a thatch and old plain-tile roof featuring brick stacks. The building has a four-unit lobby-entry plan, which has been extended to form an L-plan. It consists of one storey plus attics and two storeys.
The front of the main range includes a later two-storey tiled wing that projects to the extreme left. The entrance is flanked by two-light casement windows, all with brick dressings and labels. There is a similar window in an added 17th-century bay to the extreme right. The first floor features one small dormer. The roof is hipped to the right and has a ridge stack aligned with the entrance, along with additional stacks at the junction of the ranges and on the gable wall of the wing. The rear of the cottage has further casement windows with brick labels. The interior has not been inspected.
