Description

Riverford Farm House is an early 19th-century farmhouse constructed from stuccoed stone with a slate hipped roof. The building has a double depth plan and features corner pilasters. It stands two storeys high and consists of three bays. The windows are tripartite sashes, with a single-light sash in the center on the first floor, all having vertical glazing bars. The central doorway is adorned with a wooden trellis topped by a tented zinc roof and is framed by a moulded doorcase. There are rendered chimney stacks on the side walls, and a stone rubble lean-to is located on the west side.
