Description
New Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse built from limewashed rubble stone, featuring stone slate roofs with coped gables, end stacks, and one ridge stack at the original end wall. The building is two storeys tall and has an L-plan layout. The original range faces east and includes flush quoins, five first-floor 2-light cyma-moulded mullion windows, and a central four-panel door set in a chamfered surround with a hood supported by brackets. There are 19th-century triple casements on the ground floor on either side of the door. At the rear, there is a stone-mullioned cross window that serves as a stair light. The wing extending east from the north end has a hipped roof at the north-west angle, showing evidence of progressive enlargement in the stonework, and features a full-height slate-roofed verandah from the 19th or 20th century across the south front. The south elevation has a three-window range with two first-floor 2-light cyma-moulded mullion windows, while casements are used elsewhere. The south end wall has external steps leading up to a first-floor door. The farm is not indicated on the 1773 Andrews and Drury map.
