Description

Afflington Farm House and Dairy Cottage, including attached outbuildings, is a farmhouse with an attached cottage and outbuildings. The original house dates from around 1620 and was altered and enlarged in the mid-19th century in a 17th-century style. It features rubble stone walls and stone slate roofs with coped gables in the front range, along with stone stacks. The building is part two-storey and part two-storey with attics, arranged in a courtyard plan. The main front range is from the 19th century and includes a coped gabled porch with shaped kneelers. The moulded pointed arched doorway has a hoodmould with foliated stops and a panelled door. Above the porch, there is a raised gable with shaped kneelers.

On the ground floor, there are two 3-light stone mullioned windows with hoodmoulds and casements featuring a central horizontal glazing bar. The first floor has two similar windows, with the end one being a 2-light window. There is also a similar 2-light window in the attic, located in the centre gable. The rear wing on the right end is the original 17th-century house, constructed similarly, and features tall inserted 19th-century dormers, two 17th-century 4-centred arched doorways, and some stone mullioned windows at the rear. This wing has a lobby entrance plan with a central plastered stack. Internally, it includes one large open fireplace, which is partially built up, and one chamfered ceiling beam. The cut string stair with a wreathed handrail is located in the 19th-century range.

At the rear, there is a dairyman's cottage and outbuildings that surround the courtyard. This range also has rubble stone walls, a stone slate roof, and a plastered stack, and it is two storeys high. There are stone steps leading to the upper floor. The left end section is used as a garage and store. The outer elevation of Dairy Cottage features two ledged doors, two casements with glazing bars on the ground floor, and one on the first floor. There is a projecting single-storey range with a slate roof and a brick stack.
