Description

Short Street Farmhouse, now a house with an annexe, was built in the early 18th century, with additions made in the early 19th century. The building is constructed of rubble stone, with a concrete tiled roof and brick stacks. It is two storeys high and has six windows on the front elevation. A 20th-century door is located to the left of the centre, set beneath a flat stone hood supported by brackets. There are beaded 16-pane sash windows, a 20th-century casement, French windows, and another 16-pane sash window to the right. A straight joint marks the boundary with a 19th-century addition, which has two 12-pane sashes to the ground and first floors, and a higher roofline. The first floor of the 18th-century part has two 12-pane sashes in beaded architraves, one with a cyma-mullioned design, and another being a beaded 3-light mullioned casement, with straight joints separating each pair of windows. The left return has a segmental-headed doorway leading to a cellar, and a beaded casement window to the attic. The rear elevation includes a 20th-century half-glazed door, a single beaded casement window to the left, a 3-light cyma-mullioned casement, and a 20th-century conservatory with a planked door and plate glass sashes in beaded architraves, plus a sash window to the right. The first floor of the rear has two sashes to the right, two mullioned casements and single casement to the left. The interior features 4-panelled doors, chamfered beams, an open fireplace with a chamfered cambered lintel on stone jambs, and flagstone floors. A former outbuilding to the right now serves as an annexe, with 20th-century casements and a planked door. It has an entrance at the upper level. Attached to the right is an early 20th-century stable or cowhouse made of red brick with a corrugated asbestos roof.
