Description

Weston Farmhouse is a farmhouse built around 1800, although it may have an early 18th-century core. It has undergone alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The facade is made of limestone ashlar, with a rubblestone plinth, returns, and rear, topped by a slate roof featuring moulded stacks at the gable ends. The building has a three-unit plan with rear outshuts and stands three storeys tall with a symmetrical three-window arrangement. It features a coped parapet, a returned cornice, and a ground floor platband. The windows are six-over-six pane sash windows, with the central window being blind and having painted glazing bars. There is a mid-19th-century enclosed porch that has a coped parapet and cornice. The front door is framed by a quoined surround and consists of a six-panel design, with the upper four panels raised and fielded, while the lower panels are flush with reeded borders.

At the rear, the two left-hand bays have a single-storey outshut aligned with a projecting right-hand bay, which has two storeys and a quoined doorway to the left, leading into a late 20th-century pent-roofed log porch that is not of special interest. On the first floor to the left, there is a sixteen-pane two-light casement window in a quoined surround with a chamfered sill. The left outshut has a window on the left and a door that has been converted to a window on the right, along with a late 20th-century skylight. The returns feature quoins, with the ground floor at the rear showing a small window on the left return and a 20th-century opening under a pent roof on the right return. The interior has not been inspected. The farmhouse may have only been refronted around 1800, as it resembles four other houses in Weston that are known to be early 18th-century in date.
