Broomhouse Farmhouse

Broomhouse Farmhouse is an estate farmhouse built around 1840. It has a rendered exterior and a slate roof, with gabled ends and projecting end stacks that feature set-offs. The building showcases modest Gothic details and has a single-depth main range that is two rooms wide, with a central porch. A rear service wing creates an overall T-shaped plan.

The exterior is two storeys high with a symmetrical three-bay front. The central porch projects and is two storeys tall, with the first floor oversailing the ground floor. It features a segmental arched outer doorway and a three-light window with stepped lights for the porch room. The ground floor windows have high transoms and are set with chamfered mullions. The right side of the building has a later gabled porch and entrance into the service wing, which has similar window designs.

The interior has not been inspected, but the farmhouse remains very intact externally and is an unusual example of Gothic detailing for a building of this period. An almost identical farmhouse located at Newhouse in Mamhead Parish suggests that both structures were part of an estate design from the Mamhead Estate.
