Description
Park Farmhouse is a house and barn dating from the late 18th century, with the house extended in the 19th century. It is constructed of rubble stone and features a Bridgwater tile roof. The original structure is a barn with half-hipped gables and a central cart entry that has a projecting lean-to. The right side of the barn contains a one-room plan house, which has paired casement windows on each floor and a stack at the east end. The house has been extended to the east, with the roof hipped at the southeast angle and gabled to the north. It is two storeys high and has casement windows. Attached to the southwest angle of the barn is an open-fronted L-plan range of stalls. The barn features a four-bay single purlin roof with collar trusses, while the wall of the house section is made of thin timber frame and brick.
