Description
Oareford Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in the late 18th to early 19th century, with minor alterations made in the late 20th century. It features a roughcast exterior over rubble and a hipped slate roof that has a slight bell-cast on the facade, with overhanging eaves supported by decorative paired brackets. Tall roughcast stacks rise from the eaves on both the left and right sides. The building has a double pile plan with flanking single-storey wings.
The farmhouse is two storeys high and consists of three bays with pointed arched window openings. Many of the windows are multi-paned casements that have divided tracery heads. There is a gabled central porch with a square-headed opening, flanked by the single-storey wings which have blind semi-circular headed niches. The parapet on the right side sweeps down to mask a lean-to roof, while the left wall has been raised to two storeys and is unlit on the facade.
