Description
Foxham Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, possibly built on an earlier structure. It has been altered and is constructed of rubble stone, with some ashlar and red brick, topped by a stone slate roof and featuring end stacks. The building is two storeys high with an attic and has a double-fronted design that includes two hipped dormers.
The front facade features early 19th-century 4-12-4-pane sash windows on either side of the first floor, along with ground floor canted bays that have 4-16-4-pane windows on the left and 8-16-8-pane windows on the right. The central door is set within a flush ashlar surround and is topped by a hood supported by brackets. The right side of the facade has been refaced in early 19th-century small ashlar blocks, while the centre and left sections retain rubble stone on the ground floor, with remnants of a drip course and old red brick with flush quoins on the first floor, likely from the late 17th century. The end walls are also made of rubble stone.
At the rear, there is a two-storey and attic gabled wing that includes an attic casement pair, a first-floor 2-light flush cyma-moulded mullion window, and a ground floor lean-to. To the left, there is a lower range that runs parallel to the main front, constructed of rubble stone and raised to two storeys in painted brick. The west end features a mid-19th-century red brick range with cambered head 16-pane sash windows, including one above and two below in the south gable end, and two more above on the west side wall.
Inside, the farmhouse has a large fireplace with a timber lintel at the west end, along with chamfered spine beams on the ground floor. The first floor features chamfered and stopped centre beams, and there is a heavy timber beam across the opening to the rear wing. The roof is a three-bay structure with tie-beam and collar trusses, dating from the late 17th or early 18th century.
