Description
Lugg's Farmhouse is a circa 16th century stone rubble farmhouse with dressed quoins. It has a thatched roof with hipped and gabled ends. The main house has two storeys and a four-window front, featuring renewed casement windows with glazing bars. A two-storey stone porch with a hipped thatched roof and a segmental brick arch with a keystone sits to the left of centre, containing a studded plank door. A stone chimney stack is located at the lower gable end.
A north-east wing has a half-hipped roof and a five-light ovolo moulded wooden mullion window. A catslide thatched roof covers an outshut at the rear, also with wooden mullion windows. Attached to the south-east is a single-storey outbuilding set at a right angle and backing onto the road, also thatched and partly rendered, with a three-light ovolo moulded wooden mullion window.
Inside, the roof trusses are concealed. A timber frame screen forms a cross passage, featuring a cambered head doorway to the hall. A cambered, chamfered bressummer sits above the fireplace at the lower end, with stopped chamfer ceiling beams present. The kitchen at the lower end has two cambered head doorways in the north rear wall, leading to a pair of service rooms within an integral lean-to. A solid tread newel staircase rises from the kitchen. A cambered head is above the doorway of a first-floor room. The north wing includes a plank and muntin screen and a first-floor fireplace with a cambered bressummer. A report on the farmhouse is held by the National Monument Record.
