Description
Great Week Farmhouse is a mid-19th century farmhouse built from plastered granite rubble, featuring granite stacks topped with 19th and 20th-century brick, and a slate roof. The building has an L-shaped plan, with the main block facing north and consisting of a two-room layout with a central entrance hall and staircase. The rooms have end stacks. At the western end, there is a service block with a two-room plan that is set at right angles and projects forward, featuring a front gable end stack. The farmhouse is two storeys high.
The main block has a symmetrical front with two windows, each containing 16-pane sash windows. There is a central six-panel door that is sheltered by an early 20th-century flat-roofed porch with glass sides. The roof is gable-ended, and the rear has similar window arrangements along with a central fixed pane stair window. The service block has a lower roof and includes 20th-century casements with elliptical-headed lights, as well as one original horizontal-sliding sash window. The interior has not been inspected. Great Week Farmhouse is part of a group of listed buildings in the hamlet of Great Weeke.
