Westhay Farmhouse

Westhay Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 16th century, originally built as a hall house with a later inserted floor and chimney. It is constructed of stone rubble and features a thatched roof with hipped and gabled ends, along with eyebrow eaves. The building is one storey with an attic and has a three-window range, featuring late 19th-century two-light casements. There is a doorway to the right of the centre leading to a cross passage, and a Victorian brick gabled porch with ornate bargeboards. An off-centre brick ridge chimney stack is present. At the rear, there is a 17th-century wing that forms an L-shaped plan. Inside, the farmhouse has jointed cruck trusses with smoke-blackening, stopped chamfered ceiling beams, and a chamfered bressummer over the open fireplace in the rear wing. There is also an early 19th-century dog-leg staircase.
