Mary Week Farmhouse

Mary Week Farmhouse is a small farmhouse dating from the 17th century. It is constructed of plastered cob on rubble footings, with some areas exposed at the rear. The farmhouse features a cob or rubble stack topped with 20th-century brick and has a thatched roof.

The house has a two-room plan and faces south, with a storage room, now a garage, to the left (west) under the same roof and a small outshot at the left end. The large room of the farmhouse has an axial stack that backs onto the garage/store. The building is two storeys high.

The front of the house has a regular two-window arrangement confined to the right end. All windows are similar late 19th-century three-light casements with glazing bars, with the ground floor window being taller than those on the first floor. There is a contemporary plank door to the house at the right end, and 20th-century plank doors to the garage toward the left end. A Victorian post box is set into the wall to the right of the garage doors.

The roof is gable-ended to the right and hipped to the left, where it continues down over the outshot, which is narrow and flush with the front. The left end wall features a 17th-century oak two-light window with a chamfered mullion, which has been reset in a blocked doorway. The rear of the house also has 19th-century casements with glazing bars. The interior was not available for inspection at the time of the survey.
