Description
Durford Abbey Farmhouse is an L-shaped house located on Rogate Petersfield Road. The southern wing of the building is dated 1784, but it may include earlier elements since this site was once home to an abbey. The initials 'L.D.S.' (Lord Selden) are also present. The structure is constructed of stone and red brick, with a tiled roof. The northern wing, built in the early 19th century, is of a higher elevation and features ashlar stonework and a half-hipped tiled roof. The windows retain their glazing bars, and the house has two storeys with three windows.
