Description

The Golden Farm Public House is a late 17th and early 18th century building, with additions and alterations from the early and mid 19th century. The front of the main range is rendered, while a 19th-century wing is constructed of coursed squared limestone and the rear additions are of coursed squared limestone rubble. The main range has a stone slate roof, while the right side of the 19th-century wing, the rear slope of the main range and the rear additions have concrete tile roofs. A rebuilt stone ridge stack stands to the right of the main range, along with two brick and stone rear axial stacks, a brick stack on the gable of the right side of the 19th-century wing, and five further brick stacks on the rear wings.

The building consists of a late 17th/early 18th century main range with a mid-19th century wing projecting slightly forward to the front right and extending backwards, and two further early/mid-19th century additions to the rear left. The front of the main range has two storeys and an attic, with a six-window range. The first floor has five late 17th/early 18th century two-light stone mullion-and-transom windows with 19th-century iron casements to the left, and one 19th-century two-light hollow-chamfered stone mullion window with a hoodmould and octagonal-pattern glazing. The ground floor has two 3-light ovolo-moulded stone mullion-and-transom windows, extended down to ground level in the 19th century with 19th-century iron casements to the left. Two former 2-light ovolo-moulded stone mullion-and-transom windows have been lengthened to ground level, with the mullions and transoms removed, now containing 20th-century border-glazed French doors. The ground floor to the right has a 19th-century three-light hollow-chamfered stone mullion-and-transom window, similar to the first floor and with matching iron casements. A 19th-century gabled porch with moulded coping and a finial is situated centrally to the front, with a blind single-light window with hoodmould above a pair of half-glazed doors in a Tudor-arched chamfered stone surround. The main range has a moulded string over the ground floor and three gabled dormers with 20th-century timber casements. The 19th-century wing to the right has a chamfered plinth, a moulded string over the ground floor, and a single-light blind window with hoodmould in the gable, along with moulded coping and a finial at the apex. A blocked window is visible at first floor level on the left end of the main range, its hoodmould now obscured by render.

The interior of the bar area shows that the front rooms of the main range have been opened out. The ground floor of the late 17th/early 18th century range contains a contemporary Tudor-arched moulded stone fireplace (without a grate), raised-and-fielded panelled shutters to the ground floor French doors, and heavily re-dressed or recent beams. The 19th-century wing to the right contains a contemporary hollow-chamfered Tudor-arched fireplace, while a three-light window to the front features two-panel shutters, and an architrave with pilasters having recessed panels with trefoil tops. Matching door architraves are present at the rear left. A broad opening with a pointed top leads to a rear room in this wing, and the porch to the front has 19th-century shutters to close behind the half-glazed doors.
