Description
Jervoise Farmhouse is an early 18th-century detached farmhouse with a 20th-century extension to the rear. It is constructed of Flemish bond brick, with a timber-framed first floor covered in tiles, and has a tiled roof with brick stacks. An integral outshut is also present. The farmhouse is two storeys and an attic, with a symmetrical front of five windows. The central door is sheltered by a gabled canopy. There are two 19th-century casement windows with glazing bars, arranged like cross windows, on either side of the door; these are larger than the original windows, which were likely cross windows. The tile-hung first floor has five casement windows matching the ground floor. The steeply-pitched roof includes two hipped dormers. The right return features an external stack and casement windows to the first and attic floors. The left return has English bond brickwork to the ground floor and exposed timber framing to the first floor, with an external stack. 20th-century casement windows are found at the rear, where the outshut has been raised to create a flat-roofed first floor.
Inside, there is a mid-18th-century newel staircase with turned balusters, chamfered beams with ogee stops, two-panelled doors with L-hinges, and a five-bay butt-purlin roof. The room to the right of the front door has an open fireplace with a chamfered and cambered lintel on brick jambs. The room to the left has panelled walls and a double-cyma ceiling cornice. It is believed that the farmhouse operated as a coaching inn until the late 19th century and stood on the Salisbury to Blandford toll road.
