Description

Ashwell's Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-framed house with two storeys, designed in a letter-L plan. It features an old tile roof and brick infill within the framing. The west range consists of three bays, with a stack located to the left and between the left-hand bays. The east range has two bays and an end stack that includes offsets, with its roof ridge slightly higher than that of the west range. There is also a one-storey addition to the south.
