Description
Whiterow Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with alterations and extensions from the early 18th century. It is constructed of rubble with a stone slate roof and has two storeys, featuring a one-to-three arrangement of first-floor windows.
The original farmhouse section, located on the right, has a ground floor that includes a blocked round-headed chamfered fire window, a two-light flat-faced mullion window with four panes in each light, and a central mullion that is jowled internally. To the right of this window is a blocked light from a double-chamfered mullion window, followed by a surround of a double-chamfered two-light mullion window and a two-light double-chamfered mullion window that was formerly three lights.
On the first floor, there are three 20th-century casement windows and a line of lower eaves. The farmhouse has end stacks, with the right stack being external and stepped. To the left is an 18th-century addition that features a board door in a slab surround and a 20th-century casement window in a plain ashlar surround on the ground floor, along with a four-pane casement window on the first floor.
