Description

Middle Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse constructed from banded brick and flint, featuring brick dressings. The roof is thatched, with a half-hip on the right side and a hipped left side. There is a single brick chimney stack at the end of the ridge on the left. The windows have segmental brick heads and consist of 2 and 3-light casements with horizontal glazing bars. To the left, there is a 20th-century single-storey extension that includes a part-glazed door.
