Description

Chidgley Hill Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th to early 17th century, with partial rebuilding in the late 18th to early 19th century. It is constructed of red sandstone random rubble and features a thatched roof that is hipped on the right side, with a brick stack located to the left of the entrance and at the left gable end. The building has a plan consisting of three cells and a cross passage, modified with a hipped gable end facing the road.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and has three bays. It includes two-light dormer casements, two 20th-century windows to the left of the entrance on the ground floor, and a two-light casement to the right. The entrance features a 20th-century plank door. The right return has a two-light dormer casement and an illegibly inscribed plaque below it, along with two two-light casements on the ground floor.

Although the interior was not viewed, it is reported to contain a four-panel compartment ceiling with hollow chamfered beams, one of which is inscribed with the date 1583. There is also a chamfered wooden lintel over the fireplace that includes a bread oven. At one time, the building was divided into two cottages and possibly even three.
