Description
Swell Wold Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the mid-18th century, designed in a late 17th-century style. The structure is made of rubble and features a turnerized slate roof, although the front has a modern concrete tile roof and end ashlar stacks. The building has two storeys and an attic, with two gabled dormers. It consists of three bays, with mullion and transom windows; the outer windows are three-light, while the centre window on the first floor is two-light. There is a string course above the ground floor. A projecting ashlar porch supported by Tuscan columns leads to a four-panel door with a transom light. At the rear, there is a two-light mullion window on the first floor and a three-light mullion window on the ground floor, both set under flat rubble arches. Additionally, there is a single-storey wing extension to the north.
