Description
Gulliver's Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1700, with a late 18th-century extension on the left. The building is constructed from coursed, squared rubble and features a thatched gable-ended roof with brick stacks at both ends and at the end of the original range. The original range is symmetrical and consists of two storeys with a three-window arrangement. The windows include various casements, some with glazing bars and some without, with the exception of a two-light window located above the door. There are 20th-century glazed double doors with hoods in both the original range and the extension. Inside, there is a cyma stopped deep chamfered beam.
