Description
Norwood Farm House is a hall house dating from the early 16th century, with later 16th-century extensions to the right and rear. It was refaced in the 17th and 18th centuries. The house is timber framed, with the rear wing exposed and the front clad in red and brown materials. It features plain tiled roofs, hipped with an end gablet to the front left and half-hipped on the rear right wing, which has a tile-hung hip. The building has two storeys on a plinth, with an attic in the rear right wing. There is a front ridge stack to the left of centre and a flint and brick end stack to the right with tiled offsets. The house consists of four framed bays and has diamond-pane leaded casement windows, with three on the first floor and four cambered head windows below. A planked door is located to the left in an open gabled brick porch, which features a roundel in the gable and an arched entrance flanked by piers. Inside, substantial amounts of framing are visible, with two surviving service doors on the ground floor and a well-crafted braced crown post in the bay to the right of the stack.
