Description
Peak Farmhouse is a house built in 1728, with an early 19th-century rear wing and some minor additions from the late 19th century. The front wall is made of brick in Flemish bond, featuring blue headers, rubbed flat arches, a thin first-floor band, and a moulded brick cornice at the parapet topped with stone coping and cills. The other walls are covered in colourwashed brickwork, and the roof is half-hipped and tiled. The symmetrical southeast front has two storeys and a basement, with five windows that have Victorian sashes set in reveals. There is an early 19th-century stucco Tuscan doorcase with pilasters, leading up to three semi-circular stone steps, a plain fanlight, and a four-panelled door. The other elevations are simple, with casements and plain doorways. Inside, the hall and staircase are original oak with dado panelling, and the north wall of the south room still has its oak panelling.
