Description

Britten's Farmhouse is a house located on Britten's Hill in Paulton, dating from the mid to late 17th century. It has been altered in the mid 19th century and further extended in the late 20th century. The building is constructed of coursed rubble with freestone dressings and features a double roman tile roof with raised coped verges.

The house is two storeys high and has three windows on the front. The first floor has two-light casements, where the ones with reserved ovolo-moulded mullions flank a window with plain mullions. On the ground floor, from the left, there is a three-light reserved ovolo-moulded casement, a large 20th-century three-light window with thin mullions, a 19th-century half-glazed door, and two vertical inserted windows with eight fixed panes. At the rear, there is a long catslide. There is a gabled 20th-century wing to the right, which is not of special interest. The interior has not been inspected.
