Description

Cranborne Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the late 18th century, with an early 19th-century extension to the north. It is constructed of brick and features a slate roof, with brick stacks at the gable ends and at the end of the original range. The building was originally symmetrical, consisting of two storeys and three bays, with an additional bay on the right. It has 16-pane sash windows on the ground floor and 12-pane sash windows on the upper floor, all set under flat brick arches. The central entrance is a glazed double door located in a gabled porch.
