Description
Barf Side Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse constructed of rubble with a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and features three first-floor windows, although the central window is blocked. The central door, which is from the 20th century, is boarded and set within a chamfered ashlar surround that has interrupted jambs on plinth blocks. The windows have chamfered stone reveals and squarish openings, fitted with 20th-century casements. There are shaped kneelers and copings on the right side of the building, and it has end stacks. At the rear, there are two 2-light windows with chamfered surrounds and flat mullions that are set back. To the left of the farmhouse, there is a barn that shares the same roof but is not of special interest.
