Description
Church Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1737. It is constructed of rubble with freestone dressings and features double roman tile roofs with raised coped verges and ashlar stacks. The building has two storeys and five windows, all of which are 2-light casements with edge-moulded mullions set under a continuous string course, except for the right side of the ground floor where half is lost for a late 20th-century plain door. There is a central plank door beneath a flat hood supported by plain brackets, with chamfered jambs and a keystone, and a date cartouche above it. To the right, there is a gable of a wing that has one plain single light. This wing is cross-gabled and features two storeys and an attic, with plain mullion 2-light casements under drips. To the right, a later wing has two storeys and three windows similar to the left gable, along with a gabled, glazed porch. The east elevation gable end has a blocked 2-light edge-moulded mullion casement under a drip at the ground and attic, while the gabled lower wing has a similar 3-light window. The interior has not been inspected.
