Westington Old Farmhouse

Westington Old Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dating to the late 17th century, with extensions and alterations around 1923. It is constructed of squared and coursed limestone with ashlar dressings, and has gabled stone roofs, with stone ridge and end stacks. The building has an L-plan, incorporating a rear right wing and a detached service block to the rear left, connected by a 1923 extension.

The north-facing front has a two-window range. The first floor features late 17th century chamfered stone cross windows. A C19 lean-to with mid-20th century glazed doors sits in front of a late 17th century chamfered square-headed doorway and a late 19th-century double door inserted into a late 17th century window opening, which has a keyed lintel. A keyed moulded architrave frames a mid-20th century cross window, and a stone lintel sits above a mid-20th century window to the right. The right side wall, including the rear wing, has a two-light stone cross window, and two three-light stone cross windows. Above a late 17th century chamfered stone-mullioned two-light window is a late 17th century two-light ovolo-moulded stone cross window, sheltered by a hood mould. A 1923 extension to the rear features stone lintels over first-floor windows and has three-light cross windows on the ground floor. A linking bay from 1923 connects to the late 17th century rear left block, which itself has 1923 gabled dormers and a three-light window from 1923. The roughcast east elevation of the range connecting the late 17th century block to the main range has stone mullioned windows and a bracketed hood over the doorway.

Internally, some stained glass dating from 1923, by Paul Woodruff, is present. The main range retains ogee-stopped chamfered beams and two late 17th century fireplaces with arched chamfered surrounds and moulded cornices on the first floor. The rear left block features a similar, possibly reset, fireplace with a hollow-moulded surround, and a three-bay post and pad roof with butt purlins. The rear right wing boasts a dog-leg staircase with reset circa 1720 balusters.

The farmhouse is situated west of a former farmyard and associated buildings, which are not listed.

A second building, dating from the late 19th century, is constructed of rubble with a Cotswold stone roof, features two gabled dormers, and has stone mullions and transoms on the first floor, as well as two cross-casement windows on the ground floor. A modern lean-to lobby is present to the centre and left-hand side, with a two-storey L-plan extension to the rear featuring mullioned and mullioned-and-transomed windows, along with 20th-century extensions.
