Description
Morwents Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, sitting on a random rubble plinth with rendered gables and a slate roof. The building is two storeys high, four windows wide, and two rooms deep, featuring an M-shaped roof. The front door, located where the second window from the left would be, is accessed by six stone steps. It is a six-panelled door, with the bottom four panels fielded and having scalloped corners, while the upper two panels are glazed. The door is framed with reeded detailing in a plain reveal and topped by a semi-circular fanlight with curved glazing bars. Flanking the door are Roman Doric pillars, with a fluted block above and an open pediment, which has dentils under the slopes against the wall. The windows are sash style, with stone sills and deep lintels that have splayed ends, and the soffits slightly overlap the jambs.
