Description

Overscourt Farmhouse is largely a late 17th-century building. It is constructed of rendered rubble, with a modern pantile roof. The front features two small gables, and the house has two and a half storeys with three windows. The ground floor windows are modern casements, while one gable window is a 3-light casement with a moulded wooden mullion and a transom. A first-floor window is blocked. A gabled, rendered porch sits centrally, with a chamfered opening and a plain inner door set within a stepped double-ogee moulded oak frame. Brick stacks are present. A gabled extension to the rear includes some leaded wooden casements.

The interior retains numerous original features. A staircase door in the hall features scroll-ended wrought-iron strap hinges. The parlour has an ogee-moulded and stopped door surround, a Tudor arched double-ogee moulded fireplace with a wooden lintel and stone sheets, a display cabinet, and chamfered beams. Another principal ground floor room boasts good moulded main and subsidiary beams, and a cupboard to the right of the fireplace with a splat-baluster upper door. The kitchen reveals exposed stud partitioning. A former rear door, now leading to a former brew-house, has a large oak door surround with a cambered head.
