Home Farmhouse

Home Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century. Originally timber-framed, a small portion of this framework remains in the central two bays, while the rest of the house is clad in coursed limestone rubble. The roof, added in the mid-20th century, is tiled, and the stone stacks are finished in brick. The building features a three-unit lobby-entry plan and stands two storeys tall with a five-window range.

The original gabled two-storey porch, made of coursed limestone rubble, has a late 20th-century porch added in front. It includes timber lintels over a late 19th-century six-panelled door and a one-light window in an original chamfered frame on the first floor of the porch, along with 20th-century casements. There is a mid-20th-century square bay window to the right. The roof is half-hipped to the left and gabled to the right, with a ridge stack and an external stack on the right gable wall. A staircase projection is located at the rear.

Inside, to the right and left of the lobby are 18th-century plank doors with large Norfolk latches set in chamfered and stopped doorframes, which are similar throughout the house. The room to the left features a full set of chamfered and stopped beams and joists, a chamfered bressumer over the fireplace, and access to original winder stairs that adjoin the rear of the chimney stack. The central room has a chamfered beam and a chamfered bressumer over an open fireplace. The room to the right also has a full set of chamfered and stopped beams and joists, separated from the central room by a timber-framed partition that rises the full height of the house. The first-floor room to the right has a complete set of chamfered and stopped beams and joists, and the roof features a five-bay collar-truss design with butt purlins.
