Description
Carter's Cottage at Hincknowle Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse dating from the early 18th century, with a later conversion of the rear into a cottage. The farmhouse features dressed stone walls and a thatched roof with stone gable copings. There are 20th-century brick stacks at both the left and right gables. The building is two storeys high and has three windows, which are 20th-century, three-light wooden casements with glazing bars and wooden sills. The stone surround includes a separate label from a former mullion window, now replaced by a 20th-century three-light wooden casement. The central front door is a plank design with six glass lights, also from the 20th century, and there is a porch with a tiled pentice roof supported by two wooden posts. Carter's Cottage is the conversion and extension of the rear service wing of the farmhouse, constructed with rubble-stone and brick walls, all under a thatched roof. It is also two storeys high and features wooden casements with glazing bars, along with a plank door on the rear wall.
