Description
Park Farmhouse is a farmhouse, likely built in the early 19th century. It features rubble walls and a hipped, slated roof. There are rendered stacks with moulded caps on the central and right-hand sides. The building has two storeys and a three-window range, with a projecting wing at the front left. The windows are two and three-light casements with glazing bars, except for the ground floor window in the wing, which is a 20th-century casement without glazing bars. The central entrance has a plank door beneath a tent porch supported by a wooden structure.
