Description

Duxford Farmhouse is a mid-18th century farmhouse built from coursed limestone rubble with brick quoins and dressings, topped with a stone slate roof. The building is designed in an L-shape and has two storeys with a three-window range. The entrance features a six-panelled door, four of which are glazed, set within brick jambs and topped by a timber lintel. A hood with carved brackets and a gabled stone slate roof covers the door. The windows are C20 three-light casements with gauged brick flat arches and brick jambs. The gabled roof has gable end stacks, and at the rear, there are two similar windows with two-light casements and a gabled roof dormer containing a C18 two-light casement.

To the rear left is a one-and-a-half storey wing made of coursed limestone rubble, which has a C20 tile roof and a lateral stack rebuilt around 1970. This wing features a gauged brick flat arch and brick jambs leading to an C18 plank door with strap hinges. Inside, the farmhouse contains C18 two-panelled and plank doors, as well as C19 four-panelled doors. The room to the left has a full set of plain beams and joists, with a wood bressumer over an open fireplace with brick jambs. The room to the right has cased beams and a segmental arch over a brick fireplace. A quarter-turn staircase opposite the entry leads to the first floor, which has C18 and C19 plank doors, an original fireplace with a moulded mantelshelf, and a mid-C19 grate to the right, along with a quarter-turn staircase to the attic. The roof structure features a 7-bay collar-truss roof with butt purlins. The rear left wing has a stone flag floor and a full set of plain beams and joists on the ground floor, along with a 2-bay collar-truss roof, although the collar has been removed.

Additionally, there is a mid-18th century one-storey, one-bay brewhouse attached to the left gable wall, which has a wood bressumer over the original open fireplace.
