Description
Batworthy Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century to the early 18th century. It is constructed of plastered granite stone rubble with granite stacks, one featuring a granite ashlar chimney shaft, and has an asbestos slate roof that was originally thatch. The house has a three-room plan and faces east, with a kitchen stack at the left (south) end and an axial stack serving the right (north) end parlour. The unheated room in between was likely used as a dairy, and the end rooms are connected by a front corridor.
The exterior has an irregular five-window front, with all windows being 20th-century casements that include glazing bars, except for the first-floor right window, which is 19th-century and contains rectangular panes of leaded glass. The present doorway at the left end features a 20th-century door, and the window to the right of the centre likely blocks the original door. The roof is gable-ended on the left and half-hipped on the right. Inside, there is plain carpentry detail where it is exposed, although much of it is covered by 19th and 20th-century plaster.
