Description
Town Farmhouse, dating from the mid-18th century, is attached to rear stables and located on the west side of Market Street in Abbotsbury. The building features grey ashlar stone walls with a plat band and a hipped slate roof with tile ridging. At the center of the roof, there is a brick stack. The farmhouse is two storeys high and originally had three windows, but now has two. The windows are sashes with vertical glazing bars and plain stone architraves. The front door, located on the left side, has grey stone voussoirs and consists of four recessed panels with two top lights, dating from the 19th century.
There are two blockings: one is a window immediately to the right of the front door, and the other is an entrance between the windows at the far right end, which was originally a five-meter wide entrance made of coursed rubble stone. The rear range forms an L-plan with a porch in the angle and is three storeys high, featuring three-light and two-light wooden casements with glazing bars. The rear wall of the front block has cast-iron casements, and there is a back door in the angle that is a plank door with nine glass lights and a glazed-in porch.
The attached stables at the rear have rubble-stone walls and a hipped slate roof at the left end. There is a loft above, accessible by steps leading up to a plank door. To the left, there is a single light window for the tack room, a plank door to the stables in the center, and a two-light casement on the right.
