Description
Frankleigh Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse. It is constructed of random rubble stone with a double Roman tiled roof, coped verges, and gable end stone stacks. The building comprises two parallel ranges and is two storeys with an attic, featuring a three-window front. A 20th-century door is centrally positioned within an ovolo-moulded surround topped with a flat stone hood supported by brackets. Flanking the doorway are three-light, cyma-mullioned casement windows. The first floor has a central two-light mullioned casement, accompanied by three-light windows on either side. Two 20th-century gabled attic dormers are present, each containing a two-light casement. A straight joint on the front wall suggests that the right-hand bay is older than the left, and that the farmhouse may be a 18th-century rebuild of an earlier structure. The left return features a two-storey canted stone bay to the gable end of the rear range. The right return has flush mullioned casements set into the gable end of the rear range. The interior was inaccessible during a survey in June 1987.
