Description
Church House Farmhouse is an early 17th-century detached farmhouse situated on the east side of Church Lane, Hardwick. The building is timber framed, with roughcast rendering, rebuilt brick chimneys, and a plain tile roof. It has an L-shaped layout and presents as a single-storey structure with an attic, and incorporates a single-storey outbuilding at its north end.
The west front features scattered window openings. A gable on the right-hand side incorporates a 6-panel fielded door and a small casement window to the left. Above this is a single leaded attic casement, and further to the left are two leaded casement windows, one in a raking dormer. The outbuilding projects to the left, displaying a west-facing brick gable.
The south side has a central leaded casement window with a corresponding attic casement in a raking dormer above. Further along, a casement window is visible to the left. A central brick chimney rises from the ridge, featuring three engaged shafts.
The east side features a projecting gable end with a single leaded casement window. Exposed purlin ends are visible, as is a rendered plinth. To the right is a 19th-century casement window, also with a part-leaded raking dormer above. A 20th-century glazed porch is set into an angle, and a brick service room extends to the right.
The north end has a gable end with a projecting brick stack and a single-storey brick-built gabled service room. A larger outbuilding, constructed from lias, extends to the right.
The interior retains a complete timber-frame structure, and much of the original external framing remains intact.
