Description

Lilies Farmhouse is an early 19th-century estate farmhouse, likely built for Lord Nugent, and remodelled in 1870 by George Devey for Henry Cazenove. The construction is timber-framed with external brick walls finished with a harled render and a gabled slate roof. The farmhouse is two stories high, with entrances on the southern gable end and the western yard front.

The exterior is rendered, featuring moulded, decorative panels on the first floor and gables which stand proud of the harled render. These panels consist of circular, diamond, and rectangular shapes on the eastern and western fronts, and rectangular and circular panels framing decorative motifs on the southern gable end. The eastern frontage has three bays defined by gabled dormers with two-light casement windows. The ground floor has similar casements in the central and left-hand bays, with smaller lights to the right. The right and left gables bear the date 1870, also standing proud of the render. Square ridge stacks are located at the centre and left of the building, and a wrought iron weather vane is situated on the northern gable end.

The south gable end angles to the east, following the line of the driveway. An entrance features a half-glazed door and a canted porch supported by moulded brackets. A square bay window with a pitched roof is situated to the left.

The western yard front mirrors the eastern frontage with three gabled dormer windows and dates 1870. A porch with a gabled roof and a square bay window with a pitched roof are present at ground floor level, alongside two-light casement windows and a plank door. First floor windows are also two-light casements, with a taking-in door and jib beam to the left.

The first floor interior features exposed truss timbers from the early 19th century. These show that the roof has been raised, evidenced by principals that were notched to receive purlins but are now set below the roof pitch. Ground floor rooms have minimal decoration, but include a 19th-century bracketed fire surround.
