Description
Church Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse that was restored in 1885. It features a render on coursed and random rubble with freestone dressings and flush ashlar quoins. The roof is hipped and covered with Cotswold stone slates, and there is a coved eaves cornice along with restored ashlar stacks. The building is L-shaped, with two storeys, cellars, and attics. It has three bays, with 2-light cross windows that have edge-moulded mullions and surrounds, set within an outer bolection on the first floor. The central bay on the first floor has a 2-light casement window. A moulded string course runs above the ground floor. The rear or west wing has three windows, including one glazing bar sash on the first floor to the left. The central entrance features an 8-panel door in a bolection moulded surround, topped by a square overlight, and there is a similar blocked doorway in the east gable end. A rear lean-to is also present. Inside, the first-floor rear room in the wing has a bolection moulded fire surround. The farmhouse is located on the site of a Roman building.
