Description

Woodcock's Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1700, with a 20th-century restoration. It features rubble-stone walls and Roman-tile roofs with stone gable coping. There are 20th-century brick and 'stone' stacks at each gable and rubble-stone lower ranges at each end, made from the same materials. The house has two storeys and three windows, with 20th-century four-light wooden casements that do not have glazing bars. The ground floor has wooden lintels, while the upper centre has a two-light casement. The front door, located at the centre, is a 20th-century wooden door with narrow tall lights and a wooden lintel above. Inside, there is a stone with "T.B.1833" carved on it, likely referring to a restoration.
