Description
Oldend Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse dating from the late 16th century, with an early to mid-17th century cross wing and early 19th century alterations. The building features coursed and random rubble limestone, timber framing with brick infill, brick refacing, ashlar chimneys, and a stone slate roof. It is single-storey with an attic, has a two-storey cross wing with an attic, and a two-storey porch on the east side.
The east front shows a lower range to the left, faced in brick on a stone plinth, with some exposed timber framing. The projecting porch has a stone front and a brick side above a lean-to bay window on the left, which has an iron casement. Above this is a two-light chamfered mullioned casement with a hoodmould, and a plain porch doorway with a plank door. There is a small timber attic casement to the left of the bay, situated below the eaves. A ridge-mounted chimney is present.
The gable end of the cross wing projects forward to the right and features a blocked upper floor two-light window on the south side. The north side has the left half of the cross wing in stone, with a gable-mounted chimney that has a moulded cap, and a square framed half to the right with a small upper floor casement. The west side has small framing at the gable end of the cross wing to the left, with jowled corner posts and single-window casement fenestration. The lower range to the right is made of a mixture of materials and includes an eaves-mounted gabled attic dormer and a brick lean-to with a pantile roof.
At the south end, there is a rubble stone casement and a three-light casement to the attic, both featuring lead-latticed lights and hoodmoulds. Inside, much of the timber framing remains, particularly in the lower range, and there is one Tudor arched door-head on the upper floor. The cross wing has undergone more 19th century alterations.
