Description
Jobbleshayes Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the mid to late 19th century, with a 19th-century extension. It is constructed from white-washed local stone and flint rubble, featuring stone rubble stacks topped with 19th and 20th-century brick, and has a corrugated iron roof that was formerly thatched. The house has a four-room lobby entry plan and is situated on a gentle hillside, facing east.
At the right (north) end, there is a small unheated room currently used as a kitchen, which was likely originally a dairy or butter room. The two central rooms have an axial stack between them, with a lobby entrance in front of the stack. The room on the right was probably the original kitchen, while the left room served as the parlour. The left (south) end room features a rear lateral stack that may be a later addition.
The farmhouse is two storeys high, with a secondary two-storey outshot on the left end and a single-storey 20th-century extension at the rear of the right end. The exterior has an irregular four-window front that includes some original oak-framed windows with chamfered mullions, alongside 19th-century casements with glazing bars. The main front doorway is located to the right of centre, with a secondary doorway towards the left end, both of which have 20th-century plank doors. The roof is hipped at both ends.
The interior has been largely modernised in the 19th and 20th centuries, but the original layout remains intact. The parlour features a chamfered and step-stopped axial beam, and the kitchen fireplace has a chamfered oak lintel. The roof was not inspected.
