Description
Borough Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. It has a rendered exterior and a decayed thatched roof, which is gabled at the left end and hipped at the right end. The building features an axial stack with a stone shaft and a left end stack with a brick shaft. The layout consists of a single depth, three-room plan with an entrance leading into a stair hall located between the two left-hand rooms, while the right-hand room is unheated.
The farmhouse is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front with four windows. The front door is positioned to the left of the centre, and there is an additional entrance into the right-hand room, which is covered by a large 20th-century lean-to porch. The first floor has two and three-light timber casements with glazing bars, while the ground floor features three 20th-century iron frame windows on the left and a timber two-light casement on the right.
The interior has not been fully inspected, but it includes 17th-century chamfered crossbeams in the right ground floor room, a roughly-chamfered crossbeam, and an open fireplace with stone jambs and a timber lintel in the central room.
