Description
Rockley Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the early 18th century. It was refronted and had a rear wing added in the early 19th century, with a late 19th-century extension. The building is constructed of coursed limestone rubble, featuring an early 19th-century stucco front and a gabled stone slate roof, with brick stacks at the ends and ridge. The layout is a 3-unit plan that extends to an L-plan with a rear right wing.
The farmhouse has two storeys and an attic, with a three-window range. It features flat rendered arches over an early 18th-century six-panelled door, which has a flat hood above, and early 19th-century eight-pane sash windows. There are also two-light leaded casements and a 20th-century window in two roof dormers. The late 19th-century two-bay extension to the right has a similar stucco front with narrow sashes above a square bay window. The late 18th or early 19th-century rear wing is made of similar materials and has a two-storey, two-window range.
Inside, the farmhouse includes chamfered beams and a chamfered bressumer over an open fireplace to the left. There is an early 19th-century straight-flight staircase with stick balusters in the central hall. The building is included for its group value.
