Description

Nash Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1400, with alterations from the 16th and 17th centuries and later modifications. It features rubble walls that are rendered, with stone mullions and "Turnerized" slate roofs that have stone copings on the gable ends. The building has one front wall stone stack with a modern brick capping and two renewed brick stacks at each gable. The layout is a cross-passage plan, with a gabled-in original extension at the lower end, which may have served as a storehouse. Originally, the farmhouse had an open hall to the left of the screens, dating from the 15th century. It is two storeys high and has approximately four windows with stone mullions that are hollow-chamfered, featuring three and four lights. The windows have iron casements from the 17th century and square leaded lights. The front door, made of planks and fitted with strap hinges, is located immediately to the right of the front stack, and there is a rendered porch.

On the west gable wall, there is a protruding rubble stack with set-offs, and a small wooden window with a hollow chamfered surround is positioned low down on the left. Inside, the farmhouse has an arch-braced collar-beam roof supported by wooden corbels, dating from around 1400. The front stack fireplace also dates from around 1400. The hall and parlour feature 16th-century moulded ceiling beams that create ceiled compartments, and there are 16th-century plank-and-muntin partitions separating the screens and parlour. Two depressed-arch service door heads, which are integral to the structure, have been blocked in the 17th century. The kitchen contains an open fireplace with a wooden lintel that is partially blocked, while there is a stone fireplace in the solar upstairs, also dating from around 1400.
