Description
Cliff Farmhouse is an 18th-century farmhouse built from coursed squared gritstone, featuring quoins, plain gables, and both intermediate and end ridge stacks topped with a plain tiled roof. The building has two storeys and three bays, with two-light flush mullioned windows that have extended heads and cills. The windows are from the 20th century. There is an off-centre doorway with a massive quoined surround. At the west end, there is a single bay that was originally an open-fronted cart shed but has been glazed and includes a 20th-century extension.
