Horseshoe Farmhouse Including Bothy Cottage

Horseshoe Farmhouse is an early 17th-century two-bay lobby entrance farmhouse, with a later 18th-century rear wing and an attached bothy cottage. The north range of the farmhouse is timber-framed, with the ground floor clad in red brick in Flemish bond and the first floor tile hung. It has an old tiled roof with a cruciform brick chimney stack. The south range features a modillion cornice between floors and a plinth. The farmhouse is two storeys and has attics, with three windows to the front. The south front has three 19th-century casement windows and a 20th-century central door with a rectangular fanlight. The north front has three 20th-century leaded light windows to the ground floor.

Inside the older farmhouse range, the kitchen features a 2-inch chamfered beam with lambs tongue stops and a fine early 17th-century three-plank oak door. The lounge has a similar 2-inch chamfered spine beam with lambs tongue stops, a brick-paved floor, a large wooden bressumer with a recess for brackets holding cooling apparatus, and an 18th-century open fireplace with a row of wooden hooks for holding guns. A half winder staircase has a plank door. The first floor has bedrooms with lamb's tongue stops, and gunstock jowled posts. The attic floor has a through-purlin and queenpost roof with a collar beam cut through for headroom and two studded oak doors.

Attached to the farmhouse by a late 18th-century brick passageway, which is open-fronted and supported on square chamfered wooden piers, is the bothy cottage. This appears to be an early 17th-century brewhouse with sleeping accommodation and storage above, altered and extended in the late 18th century when a wash-house was added. The bothy cottage is a timber-framed building of one-and-a-half bays, with the exterior clad in red brick in Sussex bond, and the first floor tile hung. It has a tiled roof with a cemented chimney stack and a modillion cornice. The east front has two late 18th-century pegged architraves containing wooden leaded light windows and a 20th-century door in a similar style. A late 18th-century extension to the north has one leaded light window and a plank door. On the ground floor of the bothy cottage is an open fireplace, a large wooden bressumer and a blocked-in bread oven opening, and a spine beam with run-out stops. The first floor includes jowled posts and diagonal tension braces to the wall frame. The roof is an angled queen strut roof with through purlins and rough rafters, with a ridge-piece added in the late 18th century.
