Description
Sladbrook Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid 17th century, possibly into the early 18th century, with alterations made in the 20th century. It features brick-nogged timber-framing and a tiled roof, with a corrugated iron roof on the cross wing. The building has a 'T' plan, consisting of a three-bay, two-and-a-half-storey main section and a probably two-bay, one-and-a-half-storey cross wing. There is a single-storey lean-to along one side of the main section.
The gable faces the road and has framing that is two panels high on each floor. On the ground floor, there is a four-pane window on the left and a two-light casement window to the right of the centre, with a four-pane window on the first floor. The main posts feature angle-braces to the tie beam, and there is a single-light window above in the gable, with weatherboarding above the collar. The lean-to on the left also has weatherboarding.
On the right side, there is a blocked window on the left and late 20th-century French doors to the right. A lean-to has a brick post to the right, a boarded door, and a single-light window. The projecting wing on the right has a boarded door to the right of centre in the gable and a shuttered window above in the gable, with a collar and tie beam truss. The first floor features a three-light casement window in the centre and two-light casement windows at either end. Angle braces extend from the corner post in both directions from the first main post and towards the road from the second. Weatherboarding covers the last panel over the cross-wing roof. Two diamond-set brick stacks rise through the roof slope on the other side within the last bay. The interior has not been inspected. The house is a two-bay structure with an external gable chimney that has been extended one bay up to and partly into the lower cross wing.
