Description
Brick House Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse with some later alterations. It is constructed of red brick with limestone dressings and features a hipped pantiled roof with a stack at the rear and double Roman tiles. The building has a T-plan formed by a rear wing and is three storeys high with five windows. The ground and first floors have 18-pane sash windows, while the second floor has sashes, all featuring thick glazing bars, mostly made of crown glass, with moulded wooden cills and segmental heads.
The central entrance consists of a six-panelled door with an overlight, framed by a moulded surround and topped with a flat hood supported by scrolled brackets. The façade includes brick quoin strips and string courses above the ground and first floor lintels, made of two courses of brick, along with a parapet and limestone cornice.
On the left side, there is a similar sash window at the ground and first floors, with a blank space on the second floor, and the string and cornice details continue around. A lean-to on the left conceals a segmental-headed cellar entrance, while a blocked door opening on the ground floor left leads to an internal cupboard. The first and second floors also have a blocked window on the left.
Attached to the rear right is a later 18th or early 19th-century one-and-a-half storey lean-to with a door in a plain frame and a four-light casement, topped with a gable stack and a double Roman tiled roof. There is also a further single-storey addition to the right featuring a door and a three-light casement.
The rear of the house includes a single-storey 20th-century lean-to that is rendered, with a single light, a door, and a three-light casement. The roof level of the addition on the left has been raised with a 20th-century window. The rear of the main house has a blocked window on the first floor to the left and a four-pane light to the right, both with gauged brick heads, and a string course above. The central upper second-floor sash has a wide central pane in an exposed box with a gauged head, with smaller similar sashes under the eaves on the left and right.
Inside, the farmhouse features panelled doors, and the central hallway has a dog-leg stair with a moulded handrail and both straight and twisted stick balusters. A room to the left contains a cupboard with shaped shelves, and the windows are fitted with internal panelled shutters.
