Description
Woodland Farmhouse is a farmhouse with origins dating back to the 17th century or earlier, which underwent remodelling in the early 19th century. The building features stone rubble that has been whitewashed and rendered on the front, with a roof made of scantle slate cemented over, gabled ends, and a brick chimney located at the right gable end behind the ridge, along with a rendered brick shaft on the ridge. The layout suggests it was originally likely designed with three rooms and a through or cross-passage, but the current plan is single-depth with wide rear outshuts under catslide roofs and a rear stair projection under a hipped roof.
The farmhouse is two storeys tall, with an asymmetrical front that includes an off-centre six-panel front door beneath a flat-roofed timber canopy supported by posts. On the ground floor, the window to the left is a late 20th-century casement in an enlarged opening, while the window to the right of the porch is an early 19th-century 16-pane sash. There is also a two-light window to the right containing a pair of 12-pane sashes, with similar windows on the first floor left and right. The middle first-floor window is an early 19th-century 16-pane sash. A modillion frieze runs under the eaves.
Inside, the ground floor room to the right features a partially blocked massive fireplace, likely concealing a 17th-century lintel and jambs. The middle ground floor room retains remnants of a 17th-century moulded plaster cornice. There is an early 18th-century wide two-panel door leading to the ground floor room on the right, and an early 19th-century stair. Upstairs, an early privy is used as a store room. The rear stair projection includes an early 19th-century fixed Gothick stair window with intersecting glazing bars. The roof space has not been inspected.
