Description

Widdenham Farmhouse is a late 17th-century mill house that has been converted into a farmhouse. It is constructed of rubble stone and features a Bridgwater tile roof with coped gables and truncated end wall stacks. The building is two and a half storeys tall and has an L-shaped plan. There are two dormer gables with casement windows and a five-window range on the main floors. The original glazing bar sash windows have been replaced with aluminium windows in early 18th-century stone surrounds that have moulded sills. The moulded cornices above these windows have been chiselled off and were covered with 19th-century cement render, which has now been removed.

The farmhouse boasts a fine moulded doorcase with a rose carved in the lintel and a stone hood supported by brackets. There is a 20th-century porch added to the entrance. At the rear, there are two dormer gables with oval lights and two first-floor two-light ovolo-moulded windows with hoodmoulds. A lean-to structure is present on the ground floor. The rear wing features an end wall stack and a dormer gable on the inner face, which includes a two-light ovolo-moulded window with a hoodmould. This farmhouse is likely the "very convenient sash'd house" that was advertised for sale along with the woollen mill in 1752, with the woollen mill being recorded from the 17th century.
