Description

Old Limes Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the 16th century and around 1700. It is rendered and has a thatched roof. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with an additional two bays returning on the right side. The entrance is located laterally to the central bay and features a 20th-century porch. The windows are timber casements, with panes on the first floor. There is a major stack in the right bay and a second stack on the rear wall of the left bay. A later rear wing includes a lateral stack, and the roof is hipped.

Inside, the centre room on the upper floor has a tie-beam at a low level, which may indicate a survival of cruck construction, and there are remnants of stencilled decoration featuring flowers and leaves from around 1700, although this is now partly obscured. On the ground floor, there is a chamfered spine beam with scoop stops. The roof also contains remains of a wattle and daub chimney or narrow smoke bay at the right end of the building.
