Description

Church Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1740, constructed from chalk ashlar with a stone slate roof and brick stacks. It features a two-unit lobby-entry plan with a continuous outshut and is two storeys high with a three-window range. The central entrance has a six-panelled door, two of which are glazed, and there are concrete lintels on the ground floor over mid to late 19th century three-light casements. Similar casements are found under the eaves, although the center window has been blocked. The house has two late 19th century gabled roof dormers and a half-hipped roof with a ridge stack, a left end stack off the ridge, and a rear right lateral stack. A large late 19th century gabled roof dormer is located at the rear.

Inside, the farmhouse retains original two-panelled doors and a stone flag floor in the center, where an archway has been created through the stack. The room to the left features original fielded panelling, a moulded dado, cornice, and beam, while the room to the right has original straight-cut panelling, a moulded dado and cornice, and original wood architrave around the fireplace and corner cupboard. The lobby includes an original moulded plaster cornice. In the center of the rear outshut, there are dog-leg stairs with winders, closed string, moulded balusters, and a panelled dado. The original fireplace is found in the rear right room. The first floor has original fireplaces on the left and right, the latter featuring a cast iron grate from around 1850. Ribbed doors are present in the loft.

Additionally, there is a two-storey dairy and cheese room attached to the right, which has an 1833 datestone in its gable wall. The ground floor is made of chalk block, while the first floor is constructed from English bond brick, topped with a late 20th century tile roof. The front features concrete and timber lintels and segmental brick arches at the rear, above late 19th century two- and three-light casements, one of which blocks the rear door. The interior has chamfered beams on the ground floor. Attached to the front of this block is a mid to late 19th century brewhouse that incorporates an 18th century brick wall with dentilled eaves on the left.
