Description
East Hagginton Farmhouse includes attached courtyard farm buildings. The farmhouse has a 17th-century core that was altered in the early 19th century, when the main range and front courtyard farm buildings were constructed. A 20th-century extension was later added to the rear of the wing. The main range is built of whitewashed stone rubble, while the wing is of rendered stone rubble, with a gable end wall of cob. Slate roofs cover both, with gable ends. Stone rubble stacks, featuring tapered caps and drips, are located at the right gable end of the main range and the rear gable end of the 17th-century wing. The courtyard farm buildings are of stone rubble with corrugated iron roofs.
The 19th-century range has a principal room on either side of a through passage, with the lower-ridge-level 17th-century wing projecting at right angles to the right end. This wing originally extended further forward, as evidenced by the inserted cob wall at the present front gable end, suggesting a partial demolition to adapt it as a kitchen wing when the main range was built. The farm buildings form a four-sided courtyard, including bullock sheds and stables to either side, and a linhay opposite the main range.
The main range is two storeys high and has a five-window front elevation, which is symmetrical. It has two transomed windows on each floor to the left side, and otherwise 19th-century 12-paned horned sash windows. Ground floor windows are set within slightly cambered brick arches. A central, projecting stone rubble porch with a gabled slate roof provides entry via a plank door. The wing to the right has two 2-light casements, two panes per light, above a similar window to the left of an inserted 20th-century door. A former dairy outshut at the rear was rebuilt to two storeys in the late 20th century. The linhay has stone rubble infilling between circular piers to loft height on the left and to full height on the right of a cart entrance.
Inside the 17th-century wing is a fireplace with a hollow step-stopped chamfered lintel, a cloam bread oven, and a cast iron door. There are two roughly chamfered beams with run-out stops. The interior of the 19th-century range has largely been altered in the 20th century. Roof trusses throughout are likely early 19th century, with purlins resting on the backs of straight principals with pegged lapped collars.
