Description
Holymans Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1698, with an 18th-century east wing. It is constructed of witchert, which is colourwashed and rendered on a rubble plinth. The roofs are thatched, featuring a tiled lean-to and a valley at the angle of the wings at the rear. The building has a west range with three bays and an east range with two bays, forming an L-shaped plan. It is one and a half storeys tall.
The west elevation includes a board door situated between the right-hand bays and has three-light casements in the flanking bays. The left bay contains only a board door. There is a central three-light eaves dormer, and a stack is located between the left bays, leading to a half-hipped gable on the right. The south gable is timber framed with brick infill. At the rear of the left-hand bay of the main west range, there is a reused early 18th-century oak framed sash window, which may have been salvaged from Wincheden Priory when it was Gothicised around 1790.
Inside, the fireplace in the right-hand room has a date inscribed on the stone jamb: 'W 1 1698'.
