Broom House Farmhouse

Broom House Farmhouse is an early to mid 18th-century farmhouse built from finely-coursed herring-bone-tooled sandstone, featuring chamfered alternating block quoins. The roof is pantiled with a stone ridge, copings, and kneelers, along with brick stacks. The main house is two storeys high with three bays and a right extension that is also two storeys tall and has a wide bay, facing south.

The central entrance has an original four-panel door with an overlight, set in an alternating block surround that includes a tall keystone rising to a first-floor band, flanked by extended voussoirs. The windows are in raised surrounds with ears, feet, and tall keystones. The ground floor has 20th-century casements, which were probably originally tripartite sashes, while the first floor features 12-pane sashes without keys. The extension has two modern casements on the ground floor, one of which is in a blocked doorway, and one above. There is a right end brick chimney and a small setback one-storey right extension with a boarded door. The right return has small boarded attic openings and a gable end that is quoined beneath the copings.

The rear elevation facing the road is rendered, with most windows replaced except for a 12-pane early 19th-century stair window. Inside, the left-hand room has a 20th-century fireplace flanked by original cupboards with panelled bases and gothic glazed upper doors framed in pilasters and an archivolt with a scrolled key. The overmantel panel has ears and feet. The right-hand room features salt and spice cupboards flanking a modern fireplace. The beams in both rooms have quarter-round moulding. The staircase includes turned balusters and a ramped handrail, with a panelled landing screen. All doors throughout the house are original and consist of four fielded panels.
