Description
Kemps Town Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse located on a roadside site in Marionsleigh. It is constructed from rendered stone and cob, topped with an asbestos slate roof that has gables at both ends. The building features a right end stack and a rear lateral stack. The layout consists of a two-room and cross passage plan, with a kitchen on the right and a parlour on the left, accessed through a separate entrance at the front on the right.
The exterior stands two storeys tall and has an asymmetrical four-window front. There is a 20th-century timber front door to the left of centre, which is sheltered by a flat porch hood, and a plank door to the right. The windows include a mix of 19th and 20th-century small pane timber casements.
Inside, the farmhouse has not been modernized this century. The right-hand room, which was inspected, features a chamfered scroll-stopped crossbeam and a 19th-century wall with cupboards on the rear wall. There may be early fireplaces and other historical features concealed behind the wall plaster. The farmhouse is situated on a prominent site.
