Town Farmhouse

Town Farmhouse is a house that was originally a farmhouse, built in the 18th century and later extended and remodeled in the 19th century. It features rendered stone rubble walls, possibly with some cob, and has a slate roof that is gabled on the right side and half-hipped on the left end, adorned with decorative late 19th-century ridge tiles. There is a projecting stone rubble stack at the right gable end with a brick shaft, and an axial brick stack to the left of center, which was likely originally a gable stack. The original layout consisted of a two-room plan with a central hall that has stairs at the rear. The later 19th-century additions include a one-room extension at the left end, a wing at the rear of the right room, and an outshut behind the left end. The house has two storeys and an asymmetrical two-to-three window front, with the original part on the right. All windows are late 19th-century two-light casements with small panes. At the center of the original section, now right of center, is a late 19th-century open timber porch with a half-hipped roof and a finial. Behind the porch is a 19th-century panelled and glazed door. Inside, the stairs at the rear of the hall are likely original and are enclosed, accessed through an arched doorway. Most of the other joinery appears to date from the 19th century and is of good quality.
