Description

Court Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the late 17th century, likely altered in the early 19th century. It is constructed from limestone and marlstone rubble, featuring marlstone-ashlar dressings, and has a Stonesfield-slate roof with marlstone-ashlar stacks. The building is in an L-plan shape and consists of two storeys plus an attic, along with a one-storey section that also has an attic.

The front of the farmhouse includes, on the right, the gable end of the higher wing, which has a ground floor entrance in a 19th-century ashlar gabled porch, a blocked keystone doorway, and a mullioned window, as well as a stepped buttress. The upper floors feature two-light stone-mullioned windows with labels, and there is a band at the second-floor storey. To the left, the lower range has another gable and leaded stone-mullioned windows with two and three lights. This lower range extends further to the left, and there is an outshut to the right of the higher range that reaches the full depth of the rear wing. Additional leaded mullioned windows, with labels, are present in the left range gable wall and at the rear, with configurations of two, three, and four lights.

At the rear of the lower range, there is a secondary entrance featuring a segmental keyblock arch below a label. To the extreme left of the front, there is a single-storey kitchen wing designed in a similar style, which has a large ashlar stack on the front gable. Although its roof has been partly dismantled, it remains connected to the lower range by a segmental archway. The porch is noted to have been relocated from a house in the "Wilderness" in the 1850s. The Wilderness is a garden associated with Great Tew House, which replaced part of the village that was demolished around 1830.
