Description
Paddington Farmhouse is a 15th-century hall house, possibly older, with extensions added in the 16th century. It features a timber frame clad in whitewashed roughcast above, while the frame is exposed below with whitewashed brick infill on the wings. The building has a plain tiled roof and is designed in an H-plan with gabled end cross wings, consisting of three and four bays. It has two storeys and attics in the centre, highlighted by a gabled dormer with three leaded casement windows. The end wings jettied on the first floor, supported by brackets.
There is an inserted stack to the left of the centre and additional stacks at the rear. Each end wing has a leaded three-light window on the first floor, while the left-hand wing features a ten-light mullioned and transomed window on the ground floor, and the right-hand wing has a three-light window with a cambered head. The hall range has irregular fenestration, with two larger leaded windows on the first floor and three leaded casement windows at varying heights on the ground floor. The entrance door, located to the left of centre, has five panels with the top two glazed and is sheltered by a flat hood.
At the rear, there is a gabled wing to the left with a pentice across the ground floor and a 17th-century stack in the pentice. The right side has two gabled wings with glazing bar sash windows, along with end and side stacks, and cellars below. Inside, the roof over the hall features two open scissor-braced trusses, each adorned with hollow chamfer and roll moulding. The roof sections have double tiered side purlins with arched windbraces, and the open trusses have arched braced collars. A blocked four-centre arched doorway remains, and the timber decoration indicates the house's quality.
