Description
Churcham Court is a farmhouse that dates from the 16th, 17th, and 19th centuries. The front elevation features wet-dash render, while the porch is smooth render, and the back and sides are brick. The roof is tiled, with two courses of stone slates at the eaves on the back. The main section of the building is two storeys high, two rooms deep, and four windows wide, with a lower wing to the right. The front has three equal gables, and the wing is roofed at right angles to the left.
There is a plain plinth, and the entrance porch is off-centre to the left, situated under the central gable. The doorway has chamfered jambs and a low triangular head supported by stone lintels, with a trefoil above. The parapet gable features a cross-gablet apex and projecting kneelers. The sides have trefoil-headed lancets, and there is a four-panel door at the back, with three panels in the top half. To the right, there are steps leading down to a cellar with an iron cover; above this, there is a three-light casement window, a two-light window to the right, and a long 20th-century metal window beyond. To the left of the porch, there are two three-light casement windows, and on the first floor, there is one two-light casement window per bay. All windows are wooden with cambered heads, except for the 20th-century one.
The front has parapet gables and plain brick chimneys. The lower wing to the right has a small four-pane timber window, with a boarded door under a cambered arch beyond it; above, there is a low three-light wooden window. A single-storey wing projects at right angles, containing a garage and stores, with part of it lofted at the end.
Internally, the hall runs across the house and features panelling, with a segmental arch halfway back and a single-flight stair beyond that has spiral balusters and a moulded handrail. The walls are panelled, and there is exposed timber-framing on the first floor on both sides, with heavy chamfers on the arris of the main posts. There is a bolection-moulded door and frame, and a six-panel door on the first floor, with the smallest panels located in the centre.
