Description
Church Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid 16th century, with extensions added in the mid and late 17th century. It features square-panelled timber framing with brick nogging, some pebbledashing, and a stone slate roof with both stone and brick stacks. The building has a T-plan layout and is two storeys high with two windows.
A 19th-century gabled porch with a six-panelled door is located to the right of the 17th-century front, which also has sidelights and a four-light casement window to the left. On the first floor, there are a three-light and a four-light casement window, and the roof has three gables, with the right-hand gable being larger. The left side of the building features a segmental-headed casement, a two-light casement, and a two-light wood mullioned window on the ground floor, along with three-light and two-light casements on the first floor, where part of the timber frame is exposed.
To the right, there is a 16th-century cross range with a stone plinth and short buttresses. This section has an early 20th-century five-light casement on the ground floor and a three-light casement at the gable end. The right return facing Church Street has 20th-century casements and a dressed limestone ground floor to the right of a large lateral stone stack with offsets, while timber framing is visible to the left of the stack. The timber-framed first floor has three two-light casements.
The 17th-century rear wing features square-panelled timber framing on a rubble stone plinth, with a garage door inserted at the rear and casements on the first floor. The rear of the main range has an early 20th-century lean-to extension. Inside, there are chamfered beams in the 17th-century ranges, moulded beams in the 16th-century range, and open fireplaces. The front gable end of the 16th-century wing was originally jettied but was altered in the 19th century.
