Description
The Old Farmhouse is a house built in the early 19th century in the Gothic Revival style. It features a whitewashed stucco front with whitewashed brick return walls and has low pitched, hipped slate roofs. The central part of the house is two storeys high, flanked by single storey gable end wings on both the north and south sides. The left side has angle block rustication, a central ridge stack, and a stack at the rear left.
On the front, there are two arched two-light, Y-tracery leaded casements on each floor in the center, with one ground floor window located in the left-hand wing. The entrance door is positioned on the right side, sheltered by a gabled porch at the junction with the right-hand wing. The left-hand return front features a gable with a roundel at the apex and three arched windows on the ground floor. The right-hand return front has a pentice roof extension across the ground floor, which has similar window designs.
