Description

Croscombe Barton Farmhouse is a mid-19th century farmhouse built of rubble with an asbestos cement roof and rendered end stacks at the coped gables. The building has a double-depth plan with three wings of equal height that enclose a narrow central yard, which has been later incorporated and features a flat roof. It stands three storeys tall and has a symmetrical three-window front, with segmental arches above a late 20th-century door and casement windows. The right side of the building has a plain gable, with the wing slightly set back and a shallow flat-roofed porch over a glazed door. Similar segmental arches and window designs are found on the other elevations. The left side features two plain rendered gables and a wide single-storey lean-to lobby with a plank door. The interior has not been inspected. The farmhouse is included for its group value as part of a notable planned group of mid-19th century farm buildings.
