Description
Cautley Thwaite Farmhouse is a mid-19th century farmhouse located on Cautley Road in Sedbergh. The building is constructed from watershot coursed squared rubble and has a slate roof. It has an L-plan layout, consisting of a double-depth and double-fronted main range with a rear service wing. The farmhouse is two storeys tall and features three symmetrical windows. The square-headed doorway has a plain surround and a door with six raised panels, sheltered by a shallow porch with monolithic stone slab sides and a pentice canopy supported by wooden brackets.
On the ground floor, there are two 12-pane hornless sashed windows, and three similar windows above, all equipped with chisel-dressed sills and lintels. The gables have corniced chimneys. The right-hand return wall includes a doorway leading to the service wing, flanked by two 4-pane sashed windows, with three similar sashes above these openings. The interior has not been inspected. The farmhouse forms a group with the barn located to the north.
