Description
Court Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of rubble with brick and stone dressings, topped with a pantiled roof that features a gable stack on the left and a wide external stack on the right, both with stone coping. It has a through passage plan and consists of two storeys with three windows on the first floor, all of which are from the 20th century. The ground floor has 19th-century casement windows and two 19th-century sash windows, all set in painted stone surrounds. The central entrance is a six-panelled door with glass in the top panels, situated under a stone basket arch with chamfered jambs. There is a narrow blocked door to the left and a 20th-century brick extension on the left side.
At the rear, the farmhouse has two gables. There is a small window at ground floor left in a chamfered stone surround and lintel. The first floor features a re-set cusped trefoil-headed window in a stone surround to the left, along with the remains of a similar window to the right, which is reputed to have come from a medieval chapel on or near the site. Inside, there are two doors in pointed stone orders with moulded jambs, and the re-used windows at the rear have deep splayed reveals.
