Longham Farmhouse

Longham Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that has undergone some alterations in the 19th century. It is constructed of whitewashed rendered stone rubble and features a slate roof that is gabled at both ends, with two brick chimneys—one at the right gable end and one on the ridge. The original plan likely consisted of two or three rooms with a through passage, and the lower end of the hall projects forward as a small gabled projection to provide additional accommodation. The hall was heated from a stack in the higher end wall. However, the lower end and the through passage no longer exist, and the inner room has been rebuilt, likely during the 19th century when a rear outshut was added.

The farmhouse has two storeys and an asymmetrical front with three windows. The front left features a gabled projection, and there is a 20th-century half-glazed porch under a sloping slate roof at the angle between the projection and the main block. The windows throughout have been replaced in the 20th century, although earlier drip ledges can still be seen in the projection.

Inside, the hall contains a large 17th-century fireplace with granite jambs. The right-hand jamb features a roll moulding that wraps around as a volute decoration on two sides, although the lintel has been replaced. To the left of the fireplace, separated by a 20th-century partition wall, is a 17th-century stair turret that has a rounded inner wall. A chamfered cross beam in the projection has ogee stops, and there are pegged trusses. At one time, Longham was used as an inn.
