Description

Marsh End Farmhouse is a mid-18th century farmhouse constructed of red brick, likely recasing an earlier timber-framed building. It features a steep slate roof that is hipped to the north and half-hipped to the south, with a brick ridge stack. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a rubble stone plinth, ashlar flush quoins, and nogged brick eaves. The façade includes a three-window range of flush cyma-moulded stone mullion windows, with configurations of 3, 3, and 2 lights above, and 3-light windows along with a door in a moulded flush surround with a hood supported by brackets below. The entrance features a reused studded oak plank door. The north end wall, located under the roof hip, displays exposed timber-framing. Additionally, there is a 19th-century rear wing to the northwest, which has a slate roof, a rubble stone ground floor, and imitation timber-framing above.
