Description
Regilbury Park Farmhouse is an early to mid-17th century farmhouse, with later alterations and additions including 19th and 20th century replacement windows. It is constructed of rubble, rendered, and has a double Roman tiled roof with raised coped verges and gable stacks. The building has a T-plan, formed through the addition of wings over time.
The front of the farmhouse, to the right, is two-and-a-half storeys tall and features a projecting gabled bay. This bay has a ground and first-floor three-light casement window with ovolo mullions, continuous string courses above the lintels returning to the right. A similar three-light window is set into the gable, along with a single-light window to the ground and first floors. The facade also incorporates a plinth, battered walls, and a returned parapet terminating in an end stack. To the left of the bay is a similar single-light window at ground and first floor. Attached to the left, set into the angle of the T-plan, is a two-storey, flat-roofed addition with a two-light casement window at the upper level, featuring a reserved-chamfered mullion. A single-storey, 20th-century porch with a door and four-light casement window with ovolo mullions stands in front of this addition. A two-storey wing projecting to the left has two former ground floor window openings now concealed by a 20th-century attached garage, with a single ovolo-moulded attic light in the gable end. The inner side of this wing has a two-light similar casement under the eaves. All casements are 20th-century replacements.
The right return features a single-story rubble outhouse attached, with a chimney bay set forward and a single light at ground and first floor. The left return shows a straight joint between the front wing and the gable end of the house. This wing has a ground floor three-light casement, two two-light windows at the first floor, and a small two-light window under the eaves. The gable end to the left has a 20th-century plate-glass window on the ground floor, two two-light windows at the first floor, a single and three-light window at the attic level. The first floor to the right retains an original reserved chamfer mullion, and the attic three-light casement has original ovolo mullions. A lower two-story 19th-century wing is attached to the left, with a 20th-century window, porch, door, and a three-light casement under the eaves.
The rear of the house largely repeats the gabled bay found on the front, with a parapet terminating to the right at the junction with a further building. It may have originally had an external stack bay, as seen at the right return. A narrow two-story, 19th-century addition is present to the right, featuring a 20th-century door, a single light at the first floor, and a pitched roof. A two-story, flat-roofed addition is positioned to the right, in the angle with the 19th-century wing, and includes a door and a 20th-century light at ground and first floor. The rear of the wing features a 20th-century window on the ground floor and under the eaves, with a single-story outhouse attached to the gable end.
Internally, a few chamfered beams remain, and most original internal features have been removed. Two bays of roof are visible in the main range, showing principal rafters, collars, and a single row of purlins. The front wing has two similar bays, with a trapdoor remaining, indicating a former cheese hoist to the rear. The original windows were made with wooden ovolo mullions and have been replaced with reconstructed stone. Regilbury Park Farmhouse is a fragment of the former mansion of the Baker family.
