Description
Avenue Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century. The front is rendered and sits on a stone plinth, while the rest of the building is constructed from rubble stone. It features a moulded stone cornice and a low parapet wall, topped with a stone slate roof that has coped verges and stone stacks at the ends and ridge, which are offset. The left side has been rebuilt in brick.
The main front range has two storeys, with a lower pitched parallel rear range that includes a small central rear gabled wing, which may contain a staircase. This leads to a later large single-storey rear wing on the left, covered with a concrete tile roof. The farmhouse has four windows on the first floor, which are 12-pane sashes. On the ground floor, there is a similar narrower sash window to the left, along with two later canted bay windows with 4/12/4-pane sashes. These flank a central projecting stone porch that has a pediment supported by two unfluted columns and rear pilasters, with a six-panel door that has the top two panels glazed, the centre panel fielded, and the lower panel flush. The pediment was noted to be much eroded at the time of the survey in March 1986.
