Description
Great Stert Farm House is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century, with a date of 1674 inscribed in the porch. It is constructed of plastered stone rubble with granite dressings and features a steeply pitched slate roof with gabled ends. The front is symmetrical, with two storeys and five bays. A central projecting gabled porch has a chamfered cambered arch granite doorway, and the inner doorway is similar, featuring the date 1674 above and a heavy panelled door. The building has three-light hollow-chamfered stone mullion windows and a large chimneystack on the right-hand (north) gable end, while the south gable end is slate hung.
Inside, there are four plain chamfered granite chimneypieces with stopped jambs, one of which has a cambered arch. A ground floor room at the south end contains a small section of an early 17th century moulded plaster frieze above the fireplace, and there are stopped and chamfered wooden doorframes throughout.
