Description

Woodland Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 19th century, with a small later 19th-century wing at the rear. It is constructed of slate rubble with granite quoins, featuring slate hung above the ground floor window sill level and on the left side. The roof is covered in asbestos slate, with gabled ends and a wooden modillion eaves cornice. The gable end stacks have short red brick shafts; the left-hand stack includes a toothed brick course, while the right-hand shaft has been rebuilt.

The building has a rectangular double depth plan, consisting of two equally sized principal front rooms and a central entrance passage that leads to a stairwell at the back, with small service rooms located behind the front rooms. A small single-storey wing was added to the center of the rear in the late 19th century.

The farmhouse is two storeys high with an attic and features a symmetrical three-window range. The ground and first floor windows on either side are tripartite 8-pane sashes with flanking 4-pane sashes, while the center of the first floor has a 12-pane sash. All sash windows have horns and are likely late 19th or 20th-century replacements that follow the original design. A flight of granite steps leads up to the wide central doorway, which has an early 19th-century six-panel door with flush bottom panels and glazed top panels. The late 19th-century wooden porch has lattice sides and an asbestos slate lean-to roof. Attic casements are present in the gable ends.

On the rear elevation, there are three 3-light casements on the first floor, a sash window to the left on the ground floor, and a plank door to the right. The small gable-ended single-storey wing added later in the 19th century has a corrugated asbestos roof. The interior has not been inspected, but the early 19th-century joinery appears to be intact, including panelled doors and a dog-leg staircase with stick balusters and turned newels.
