Description

Home Farmhouse is a house dated 1621 and 1665, with 19th-century alterations. It is built from limestone rubble with gritstone dressings and has a graduated stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and features four irregularly spaced first-floor windows. The quoins are prominent, and to the far right, there is a glazed 20th-century door set in a chamfered quoined surround, topped with a triangular-arched lintel under a square head. This head has two recessed plaques carved with "T.S." and "1665" in relief. A continuous hood mould steps up over the door and extends left, above two 4-light recessed and chamfered mullioned windows, each missing its central mullion. To the left of these windows is a boarded door with quoined jambs and a crudely shaped triangular doorhead, with the lintel inscribed "RS 1621 RS". The first floor features 4-pane sash windows in plain surrounds. There are ridge stacks to the right of the left door and at the far right. The interior was not inspected during the resurvey. This building is one of the very few in the area that dates from before the Civil War period.
