Description

Court Farmhouse is an early 17th-century farmhouse, altered in the 18th century. It is constructed with square-panelled timber-framing on a stone plinth, rebuilt in brick with chamfered stone quoins, and has a thatched roof with half-hips to the 17th-century range. The building is arranged in a T-shape, with an 18th-century brick wing forming an entrance at the rear of the original 17th-century range.

The two-storey, two-window south front features a planked door and a single-light casement window below a thatched hood on the right, and a three-light casement window on the left. The first floor has two two-light casement windows. The 17th-century range to the east retains timber-framing on the west side only, with a two-light casement window on the ground floor. The south gable has two two-light casements built into a brick wall. The east front was rebuilt in the 18th century and has two twelve-pane sash windows in stone architraves flanking a blocked doorway on the ground floor. Above, two ovolo-mullioned casements are positioned either side of an elliptically-headed sash window with a keystone and impost. The north gable is constructed of rubble stone, with an external stone stack. 20th-century extensions are located at the rear.

The interior of the 17th-century range includes deep chamfered beams with stepped stops, a blocked open fireplace at the north gable, and a winding staircase in the south-west corner. The first floor has chamfered cross beams in the bedrooms, timber-framed partitions, and planked doors. Key structural elements such as jowled main posts and a chamfered wall plate with bar stops have been preserved on the west side of the timber-frame.
