Description
Rodwell Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the early to mid 19th century. It features an ashlar front made of small blocks, a stone slate roof with eaves, and rear stacks. The building is two storeys high and has a three-window range of 16-pane sash windows, which have hoodmoulds. The upper windows have been replaced with 20th-century plastic-coated windows.
The central entrance has a depressed-arched, 8-panel door located in an enclosed ashlar porch. This porch has a pierced quatrefoil parapet and a Tudor-arched entry with a hoodmould and carved head stops. The end walls are made of squared rubble stone, with the ground floor featuring a canted bay, a first-floor sash window, and a blank panel in the attic. The rear wings include a ridge stack and a one-window range of 16-pane sashes.
Attached to the northeast corner is a two-storey section with a two-window range, featuring a 16-pane sash window on each floor to the right, and a door with a 12-pane sash window above to the left.
