Description
Post Office Farmhouse is a farmhouse that was formerly part of the Revelstoke estate, dated 1885 and likely designed by George Devey's office. It is constructed from rockfaced local limestone with dressed quoins and features a bitumenised scantle slate roof with gabled and half-hipped ends. The building has a deep battered plinth and is L-shaped on plan, standing two storeys tall.
On the left side, there is a two-storey triangular bay with a hipped roof, topped with a wrought iron weathervane. To the right, a half-hipped dormer is present. The porch is diagonally placed in the angle of the building, featuring a wooden gable supported by shaped brackets. Over the ground storey windows, there is a continuous slated pentice on brackets. The windows are ovolo wooden mullions with leaded panes. Large red brick chimney stacks are also prominent. On the west side, there is a pilastered tablet that displays the date 1885 along with Lord Revelstoke's monogram.
