Description

The Farmhouse is a house from the mid 19th century, constructed of banded brick and flint with a tiled roof and end brick stacks. It has a symmetrical design, standing two storeys tall with a three-window range. The windows are three-light casements featuring glazing bars, set under flat, rubbed-brick arches. The central entrance consists of a flush panelled door with a transom light, situated in plastered reveals. The facade remains very unspoilt, showcasing a well-proportioned and detailed example of its architectural style.
