Description

Dryevers Farmhouse, built around 1682, features an adjoining coach house, forecourt walls, railings, and a gate. The initials W. & A.B. are inscribed on the lintel of the rear door. The coach house is likely an 18th-century addition, with the walls, railings, and gate possibly added at the same time. The building is constructed with wet-dashed slobbered rubble and has wrought-iron railings and a gate. It has a graduated slate roof with outshuts at the rear, along with stone copings and kneelers.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and has five bays in total. There is a 20th-century panelled door on the left and an elliptical-headed entrance to the coach house on the right, with two three-light mullioned windows between and four above. All windows are sashes set in stone surrounds. The rear door features an ornately stop-chamfered surround with a false four-centred head. The building has two stone mid chimneys, one with a stepped design and the other with a cornice.

The low front wall has segmental copings topped with wrought-iron railings that have knop-ends on rod standards, and the gate matches this design. The end and gate piers of the wall are rusticated and topped with finials.
