Description

Bye Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely dates from the late 18th century. It features rubble walls, gable-ended slate roofs, and brick stacks at each end. The building consists of two parallel ranges and has two storeys with a two-window arrangement. The windows on the upper floor are 16-pane sashes, which are probably original. There is a central doorway made of 20th-century brick, which has a glazed door.
