Description

West Dunley Farmhouse is an estate farmhouse built in 1847 for Joseph Neeld of Grittleton. It is constructed of squared rubble stone and features a stone slate eaves roof with diagonally-shafted stacks. The building is two storeys high and has a square plan in the Tudor style. The south front has three windows and includes two main gables with a smaller gablet in between. The main gables have apex roundels marked 'A' and 'T', and there are 2-light windows on each floor, with a single light in the centre of the first floor. A dripcourse runs above the windows, and there is a door located in a broad gabled porch. The porch is topped with stone slates and has an ashlar Tudor-arched lintel with a roundel above, marked 'I.N. 1847'. The northwest rear wing contains a two-storey dairy and cheese room range, gabled to the north, and features a twin-gabled, two-window range with 2-light windows on the east front.
