Description
Long Farthings is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 18th century. It is constructed of rubblestone with brick dressings and has old tile roofs. The building has two storeys, with the left part consisting of two slightly lower bays and the right part being one wide bay. To the right, there is a single-storey wing.
The left bays feature a central door and two-light leaded windows set under segmental arches on the ground floor, while the first floor has a single light window on the left. The right bay has off-centre three-light leaded casements, with a segmental arch on the ground floor. A large chimneystack made of old thin bricks from the 17th century is located on the right side. The brick south gable shows a tie beam and lintel that indicate evidence of fire damage.
Inside, there is a chamfered spine beam and an inglenook fireplace. Some of the roof timbers also show signs of fire damage from a fire in 1760. At the rear of the left bay, there is a two-storey wing that is colourwashed and rendered.
