Description
Willington Court Farm is a detached farmhouse dating from the 16th century and 18th century. It is constructed from blue lias and sandstone, brick, rendered brick, and close-studded timber-framing, topped with a slate roof and brick stacks. The gable end of the close-studded 16th-century wing extends forward at the center, while to the right is a gable end of a blue lias and brick block, possibly of similar date. An 18th-century block, likely with an earlier core, is positioned at right angles to and behind the close-studded wing.
The close-studded wing has one and a half storeys, with the ground floor of the gable end and left-hand wall refaced in brick. The gable end features three-light casements with horizontal glazing bars, and there is a 19th-century plank door located lower left within a gabled porch. At the rear of the 18th-century main body to the left, there is a 12-pane sash window in a lean-to.
The right side has a gable end of blue lias and sandstone, with the upper part of the gable made of brick, featuring a 19th-century three-light window with horizontal glazing bars and a segmental-headed surround. Below it is a 19th-century twelve-pane sash window within a brick surround.
The yard front includes the 18th-century block on the right, which has two storeys and an attic, lit by a three-light roof dormer. The windows consist of two and four-light wood casements with horizontal glazing bars, and there is a band between the ground and first floor. A central 19th-century plank door is situated under a gabled canopy. The left gable end of the blue lias block has 20th-century steel casements on the first floor and garret, along with a plank door within a segmental-headed surround at the lower right. The walls of the blue lias are up to 1.5 meters thick. The right-hand wall features a rectangular window within a flat-chamfered surround (now blocked), with a 19th-century single-light casement with glazing bars below, and a 19th-century twelve-pane sash window to the left. There is a lateral stack and an axial and gable-end stack with diamond-shaped indentations from the 18th-century block. The interior has not been inspected.
