Description

Palace Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1673, with significant rebuilding from the early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed stone and features a banded, patterned tile roof with verge parapets. The building has circular stone end stacks and a square ridge stack located to the left of center. It is two stories high with a one-to-three window frontage, which has a set-back on the left end. The 19th-century paired glazing bar sash windows have block mullion divisions. The ground floor features a cavetto moulded label that steps over a Tudor-arched door head, with the inscription "W M 1673" on the lintel. The end stacks have circular flues that are corbelled out to square capping, a characteristic shared with several nearby houses.
