Description

Holebrook Green Farmhouse is a house, probably built around 1600. It features whitewashed rubble that is raised in brick above the wall-plate. The roof is made of corrugated iron with gable ends and a brick stack located to the left of the door. The building has an L-shaped plan with a cross passage and is two storeys high, with a range of five windows. There is a mix of 19th-century two and three-light casements, mostly with horizontal glazing bars. One ground floor window retains the remains of a returned label, and there is a 19th-century outshut on the left. The front door is glazed.

Inside, the farmhouse has plank and muntin partitions, chamfered ceiling beams, and wall plates that intersect in the west block. This block also features a complex moulded timber bresummer, while the north wall of the eastern block has a massive arched chamfered bresummer. One fireplace in the house is dated 1686. The roof is of a type identified at Friar Waddon, Portesham, with a collared truss where the collar is halved and tenoned into the principal rafters, along with a butted ridge piece.
