Parsonage Farmhouse

House. Probably incorporating earlier work, the main fabric of the house dates to the 17th century, with significant recasing to the right side in the early 18th century. The left side has rendering, likely over timber framing; the right side is grey brick with red brick dressings; the roof is of old plain tiles, hipped to the higher 18th-century portion on the right, with a brick ridge stack marking the junction between the 17th and 18th-century work.

The house is two storeys and an attic with a two-window range to the left. To the right, it is taller, two storeys and an attic with a three-window range, set at a right angle to the street. The left side features a six-panel door with a painted wooden architrave surround and a flat hood supported by richly carved brackets. Horizontal sashes with painted wooden surrounds and a pulvinated frieze to the cornice are on either side. Wood-leaded Ipswich windows with winged heads to the keyblocks are located on the first floor to the left and right. A flat-roofed dormer is centrally positioned above. The right side has fifteen-pane unhorned sashes with cambered heads to the left and right, and a blind panel with a cambered head centrally. A flat brick band marks the division between the ground and first floors. Twelve-pane unhorned sashes are located to the first floor, with cambered heads, except for the blind panel to the right. A flat brick band and a parapet run along the eaves. A hipped dormer has a two-light casement window. The left return shows rendering, likely over timber framing, alongside a horizontal sash and a stone two-light mullion window. A single-light casement is on the first floor, and the gable end has tile hanging with shaped and carved bargeboards and a two-light casement.

The right return is of grey brick with red brick dressings and has an old plain-tile hipped roof with a brick end stack to the right. It is two storeys and an attic with a four-window range. Fifteen-pane unhorned sashes with thick glazing bars and cambered brick heads are on the ground floor, except for the one to the right of centre, which has a sash door at its base. A flat brick band divides the ground and first floors. Twelve-pane unhorned sashes with cambered brick heads are located to the first floor. A flat brick band and a parapet run along the eaves. Two hipped dormers have two-light casements. The rear of the house displays large timber framing with angle braces and rendered infill; it has an old plain-tile roof with irregular fenestration. A double queen-post roof truss is visible in the cross-gable to the left.

The interior features an 18th-century open well staircase with a turned baluster balustrade, extending from the ground floor to the attic at the rear right. A stone chequer floor is in the centre of the ground floor. A room on the ground floor right displays early 18th-century fielded panelling with a moulded dado rail, a wood dentil cornice, and architrave door surrounds. A richly carved early 18th-century Baroque white marble fireplace with an eared architrave surround and an overmantel panel is also present. Fielded panelling adorns the bedrooms on the first floor right.
