Description

This is a farmhouse with an attached barn located in Bratton Fleming. The house dates from the 16th or 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries, while the barn was built in the 19th century. The farmhouse features roughcast rendered rubble and cob, with slate roofs that have gable ends. The barn is constructed of rubble with some cob and has a corrugated iron roof.

The farmhouse has a lateral rubble stack at the front and a brick stack at the left end. Originally, it had a three-room through-passage plan and includes a two-storey porch leading to the passage. The building is two storeys high and has a three-window range with 20th-century window fittings. The gabled porch has a four-paned light above the entrance, which features a renewed timber lintel, and there is a 20th-century inner door. The left end has a lean-to with a slated roof, while the rear outshuts have tiled and corrugated asbestos roofs that enclose a rubble buttress. The interior has been altered.

The barn includes double threshing doors at the rear and a plank door at the right end.
