Description
Mount Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1861 by Francis Niblett, which incorporates part of the 17th-century Haresfield Manor. The building is constructed of brick on a chamfered stone plinth, featuring flush stone quoins and a coursed and dressed stone elevation on the southwest side. It has a tiled roof, with the 17th-century section originally thatched. The main 19th-century range has a very large brick ridge stack with four diagonally set square flues above a stone offset, each flue adorned with a dentil course. There is also a lateral, partly external brick stack with a moulded stone cap on the 17th-century wing.
The farmhouse consists of a single main range of two storeys and an attic, with a projecting 17th-century southeast wing and two small single-storey wings to the north, likely added in the 20th century. The core wing was refenestrated in 1861 to match the south front, featuring two and three-light stone mullion windows, including two four-light windows with king mullions in the projecting gable, and a three-brick string course between the floors. The stone elevation includes a canted bay on the ground floor with a 1/3/1-light stone mullion and transom.
The entrance front has a two-storey projecting porch slightly left of centre, which features a two-light stone mullion window and a square hoodmould over a Tudor archway with an ovolo-moulded datestone between. The inner door consists of six fielded panels, with the top two being glazed. There are cambered head three-light casements on both the ground and first floors on each side.
