Description

New Farmhouse is a farmhouse built around 1800. It is constructed from coursed limestone rubble and features a gabled M-shaped roof covered with 20th-century tiles, along with brick symmetrical end stacks. The building has a double-depth plan and stands two storeys high, presenting a symmetrical three-window range. There are timber lintels above a 20th-century door, which is accompanied by a 20th-century timber porch and 10-pane sash windows. The windows include timber lintels over 20th-century three-light casements flanking a two-light casement. To the right, there is a one-storey range made from similar materials. The interior has not been inspected.
