Appletree Farmhouse

Appletree Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that has been raised and altered later. It features a cruck frame encased in coursed limestone rubble, with roughly dressed sandstone additions and a pantile roof topped with brick stacks. The building has a two-cell, end-passage plan and stands two low storeys high, presenting a two-window front. To the left, there is a single-storey lean-to outbuilding. A 20th-century board door is accessed by stone steps in the lean-to. The ground floor has two three-light, small-pane horizontal sliding sash windows, along with a fire window on the left end. The first floor also features two 20th-century three-light small-pane horizontal sliding sash windows. All openings have thin timber lintels, and there is a stack at the left end.

Inside, there are two pairs of full crucks with tie beams, collars, and a saddle apex that survive in the cross wall and the right end wall. The ground floor has exposed beams throughout, along with two broach-stopped posts framing the original doorway into the houseroom. Plank and muntin partitioning remains on the upper floor. In the first room to the right, there is a stone fireplace with a corbelled, moulded mantleshelf. Notably, thatch is preserved beneath the pantiles.
