Description

Prime Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse built with brick walls in Flemish bond, featuring some burnt headers and a rendered plinth. The slate roof has gable ends and glazed ridge tiles. The building is two storeys high and has five windows, which are modern wooden casements with segmental brick arch heads and wooden sills. There is later brickwork on the first-floor walling. The central entrance has a plank door with a segmental head, and there is a rendered porch with a pitched tile roof and a modern fluted door-case. At the rear, there is an outshut. The farmhouse has three renewed brick stacks: one on the left, one on the right, and one just left of the front door alignment.
