Description

Barley Hill Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse constructed of red brick with low-pitched slate roofs and rear stacks. It incorporates a possibly 17th-century rendered range that features a steep hipped roof covered in Bridgwater tiles. The east front is two stories high with three windows, showcasing an ashlar plinth and brick angle piers that frame a recessed facade with dentilled brick eaves. The windows are twelve-pane sashes with gauged brick heads. A central six-panel door, adorned with a traceried fanlight and set beneath a gauged brick arch, is located in a mid-19th-century ashlar porch that features thin pilasters and a cornice. The north front, facing the road, mirrors the two-window design but includes a central feature and angle piers. The ground floor has twelve-pane sashes, while the first floor has a blank window and a 20th-century window. A similar one-window range is present on the west return. The south-west rendered section includes a three-window, two-story range of casements, mostly from the 20th century.
