Description

Tanhurst Farm House is a house dating from the late 16th century, with extensions from the 17th century. It features a timber frame that is underbuilt in whitewashed brick at the front, with whitewashed brick infill above. The roof has a slate pitch at the front and plain tiles at the rear. The building has two square panel framed wings at the back, which have render infilling and are set on sandstone rubble plinths, with slate roofs. The house is oriented at right angles to the street and has a three-bay front range with parallel wings extending at right angles to the rear. It is two storeys high, with an attic in the rear right-hand wing. The front has three framed bays and a corbelled rebuilt stack located to the rear left of centre. There is arched bracing on the first floor, with two windows on each floor; the lower windows are set under a tiled break. A door is positioned to the right, and there is a pentice extension to the left with an additional door. The rear wings each contain one leaded casement window on each floor, with three under 20th-century drip boards. The building was undergoing restoration at the time of the re-survey.
