Description

Rooks Farmhouse is a house that dates from the 17th century, with early 19th-century alterations. The walls feature part of a timber frame with ironstone infill, while other sections are made of painted brickwork in Flemish bond. The roof is steeply pitched, hipped at the south end and half-hipped at the north, with two gabled dormers that have decorative tile-hanging. The house has a shafted stack and is designed as a timber-framed lobby-entrance house, with a short extension at the south end. The southeast front has two storeys, with one storey and an attic, and features two windows. The 20th-century leaded casements and a four-panelled door in a plain frame complete the façade.
