Description
Nightingale Old Farmhouse is a house that dates from the 17th century at the rear and has an early 18th-century front. The rear is timber framed with thin scantling and has whitewashed brick infill, while the front is also whitewashed brick with tile hanging on the left side. The house features plain tiled roofs that are hipped at the front and lower at the rear. It has two storeys and an attic beneath a flat-roofed central dormer. There are square stacks on the right and smaller stacks on the left. The building has a plinth with a plat band above the ground floor and a string course at the eaves. The front is symmetrical, with two 12-pane glazing bar sash windows on each floor, which are under gauged brick heads and have been painted over. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door set in a projecting flat-roofed porch that includes a rendered transom light. The timber frame is exposed on the right-hand return front.
