Description
Cockwell Farmhouse is a farmhouse with a core dating back to the 16th century, which was heightened and dressed in the 18th century. It features rubble walls with stone quoins and brick elements that raise the eaves height. The roof is made of corrugated iron with hipped ends, and there is a central stack that blocks the former cross-passage. The building has two storeys and five windows, which are wooden and metal casements from the 20th century set in original openings, with wooden cills and lintels. The doorway has brick jambs and a 20th-century door, and there is a large sleeper buttress.
Inside, there is a plank-and-muntin partition with large straight chamfers, and an integral shouldered arch doorway from the 16th century. The ceiling beams are deep-chamfered, and there is an open fireplace featuring a straight-chamfered lintel and renewed brick jambs. The roof is likely a jointed-cruck type, although this evidence is now covered with plaster.
