Description

Quarr Farm House is a detached house, likely built in the late 18th century. It features plastered cob walls and a thatched roof with plastered end stacks. The house is two storeys high and has a 20th-century part-glazed porch with a tiled roof and a ledged door. On the ground floor, there are two casement windows with horizontal glazing bars, while the first floor has three similar windows. There is a 20th-century single-storey tiled extension on the south side and a flat-roofed extension at the rear. The main ground floor room includes a large open fireplace with a timber lintel, and some ceiling beams are exposed.
