Description

Sundial Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse that has been altered in the late 18th century and is now a detached house. It is constructed from limestone rubble stone and features a tiled roof with coped verges and brick stacks. The building is two stories high with a four-windowed front. To the left of the center, there is a six-panelled door set in a moulded architrave, which is topped by a pedimented porch supported by Doric columns. To the left of the door is a tripartite sash window, and to the right are two tripartite sashes that were enlarged in the 1960s.

On the first floor, there are four 12-pane sash windows, and above the door, there is a stone sundial with the inscription "17 RWS 75." The left side of the building has a three-light casement window on the ground floor and a two-light casement on the first floor. The rear of the house features a 20th-century glazed door that has been inserted into a former three-light recessed chamfered mullioned window, along with a two-light casement to the right in a blocked doorway and a three-light casement in a former mullioned window. The first floor has two two-light casements and one three-light casement, all inserted into former mullioned windows during the 1960s.

Inside, the farmhouse has an open fireplace with a timber lintel on stone jambs in the west rooms, and an 18th-century dog-leg staircase with two turned balusters per tread, a ramped handrail, and turned newels. The stair hall features reset 17th-century panelling with an arabesque frieze. The drawing room includes a door with six fielded panels and a marble fireplace with a mural above it, which is framed by a painted eared architrave depicting an 18th-century landscape that was recently uncovered in 1985.
