Description
Temple Farmhouse is a farmhouse that has been divided into two parts, dating from the late 18th century, though it may be older. It is constructed of rubble, partly rendered, and features a stone slate roof with an irregular plan. The building is two storeys high.
The south front is rendered and consists of three bays, with a projecting cross-wing of one bay to the left. The central entrance has a six-panel door set in an ashlar eared architrave, which includes splayed bases, a pulvinated frieze, and a modillioned pediment. The windows are four-pane and set in stone surrounds. The cross-wing has a hipped roof, and there are stacks located at the ends and between the first and second bays of the main range.
On the rear elevation to the left of the cross-wing, the wall is made of rubble and features a six-panel door in a deeply-chamfered surround, a segmental-arched cellar-hole, and a very tall landing window with imposts and a keystone. To the right of the rear cross-wing, the ground floor has a four-pane sash window in an ashlar architrave, while the first floor has a casement window in an ashlar architrave. The left return of the rear cross-wing includes a two-light double-chamfered mullion window on the ground floor and a four-pane sash window in an architrave on the first floor. There is an external stack with a corniced top at the end right.
The right return of the rear cross-wing features a six-panel door and a tall window above, both within the same ashlar architrave. At the east end, there is an early 20th-century lean-to extension that has a doorway above which is an ex-situ plaque with a worn inscription that reads, "WHOSO THAT COME TO THIS HOUS O LORD DO THEM PROTECT AND WHO DOTH PAS FORTH OF THE SAME JESU THERE WAYE DERECT," along with the initials of Peter Atkinson and his wife, dated 1608.
Inside the farmhouse, the kitchen contains a late 18th to early 19th-century tripartite fireplace.
