Whitstone Farmhouse

Whitstone Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1880. It is constructed of unrendered stone rubble with brick dressings and features a hipped slate roof. The house has large brick stacks at each end and at the rear gable end of the service wing. The layout is symmetrical with a two-room and central stair hall plan, two rooms deep, and a gable-ended service wing on the rear left side, creating an overall L-shaped plan. The building has two storeys and a three-window range, with all windows being 16-paned horned sashes. The windows are topped with cambered brick arches that have keystones and are framed by brick quoins. A stone and brick porch with a gabled slate roof, shaped bargeboards, and a datestone reading "1880 M.R." adds to the character of the farmhouse. Whitstone Farmhouse is part of a group of late 19th-century farmhouses associated with the Clinton Estate in the area, most of which were constructed between 1878 and 1882. The farmhouse is also linked to a notable courtyard range of contemporary farm buildings.
