Description
Frenchland House is a farmhouse dating from the 16th century, with a 17th-century wing and 19th-century elevations. It features a timber frame that is clad in red brick from the 19th century, although the frame is exposed in the re-entrant angle to the west and on the first floor to the north. The first floor of the west side of the north wing is tile-hung, while the east gable of the south wing has weatherboarding. The roofs are plain tiled, with a half-hipped roof to the north and a hipped roof to the south of the north wing, extending down to the joint with the cross-ridge of the south wing. There is an end projecting stack to the east on the south wing, a ridge stack on the south end of the north wing, and a small end stack at the side of the north gable end. The building has a T-plan, with an earlier southern cross-wing that may have originally served as a hall-house. It has two storeys to the south and two storeys with a garret to the north.
The south front has irregular fenestration, featuring one window on the first floor and two windows on the ground floor, along with a central boarded door that has a segment brick head. The east front of the north wing also has irregular fenestration, with two windows on both floors and a doorway to the left, which is behind a 20th-century rusticated weather porch located in the re-entrant angle of the building. There is a small lean-to extension to the north.
