Description

Church Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates back to the 15th century, with additions from the 17th century and a late 18th-century refronting to the east. There have also been alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed from limestone and sandstone rubble with stone dressings, and it features a double Roman tiled roof with raised coped verges. The right return and rear are rendered, while the left return is made of limestone ashlar, with a concrete pantiled roof, brick gable stacks, and a pantiled lean-to.

The west range is likely the original church house, running parallel to the east range. The north front has two gable ends; on the right, there is a single-storey lean-to with a 20th-century three-light window and door, and a pantiled roof. Above, at the first floor, there is a stone mullion and transom window with cusped heads and a quatrefoil, complete with a hood mould featuring a finial and a relieving arch. To the left, a later wing steps forward, presenting a blank gable end.

The right return features a ground floor with a four-pane light, two 20th-century lights, and a two-light stone casement window with a chamfered mullion and hood mould. The first floor has a 19th-century two-light casement with a timber lintel, and one course of squared rubble below the eaves. Set back to the right is a lower wing with a ground floor 20th-century three-light casement and a small two-light casement under the eaves.

The left return has two storeys and three windows. The ground and first floors on the left and right have paired sash windows, while the central first floor features a sash window and a central 19th-century gabled porch with an inner panelled and glazed door. The façade includes a plinth, a first floor cill string, a cornice, a parapet, and coping. The rear has a single-storey lean-to with a door and two 20th-century windows, along with an eight-pane sash window at the ground floor right.

Inside, the former external east wall of the original building has two pointed arched stone doorways with convex inner moulding and chamfer. A chimney breast is located between these doorways, with the end of a timber lintel visible. There is a 19th-century open-well stair to the southwest, and the east range has a central entrance hall. A first floor window to the south has been blocked.
