Description
Ugford Old Farmhouse is a 16th and 17th-century farmhouse that has been restored in 1970 and is now a detached house. It features square-panelled timber-framing, with parts rebuilt in stone and flint chequers or brick and rubble stone. The roof is thatched and has gable end brick stacks. The building has a gable end facing the road and a passage leading away from the stacks, with a four-bay cruck construction. It is a single-storey and attic structure with four windows.
There is a planked door to the left of the centre, set in a thatched porch, with a 2-light casement window and a 3-light casement window to the left, and three 3-light casements to the right. The attic features four eyebrow dormers with 2-light casements. Attached to the right is a cob outhouse with a planked door and a right return that has a leaded fixed window. The left return has been rebuilt in stretcher bond brick around 1970 and includes an external stack. The rear of the house has French windows, a planked door, 3-light casements, and a lean-to extension. The first floor has 2-light casements in the eyebrow dormers to the left of a central half-hipped gable, which also has two 2-light casements.
Inside, the farmhouse features a chamfered beam with stepped stops and an open fireplace with a chamfered lintel in the north room. There is a round-arched door with a keystone and dentil cornice to the right of the fireplace, which has been moved from the left-hand side, along with reset panelling from The Crown Inn in Salisbury. The internal partitions are timber-framed, and the south room has a deeply chamfered beam with stepped stops. The attic exposes crucks, which were formerly full but are now raised, and some curved windbracing has been retained.
The property was owned by the Wilton Estate until the 1960s and has been occupied by the Coward family since the 17th century. Woolston Coward served as Mayor of Salisbury in 1626.
