Description

Woodparks Farmhouse is a small farmhouse dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century, which was modernised around 1975. It is constructed of plastered cob on rubble footings, with a cob or rubble stack topped with 19th-century brick and a thatched roof. The house has two rooms facing south-east, featuring a central cross passage and rear outshots. It appears to have been extended to the right (north-east) in the late 19th to early 20th century. The building is two storeys high and has a four-window front with casements from around 1975. The door is located behind a glass-sided and roofed porch, also from circa 1975. A large kitchen stack projects from the left (south-west) end, while the stack in the right room has been demolished. Most original features are concealed inside, but there is an exposed chamfered cross-beam with run-out stops in the left room.
