Description

Hornage Farmhouse is a house from the early 18th century that has been altered. It is built of brick and features an old tile roof. The building has two storeys and dormers, with an L-shaped plan that has the main front facing south and a northeast wing. The south front has three bays, with an off-centre door located between the right-hand bays. There are three cambered gauged arch windows; the left-hand ones are blocked, while the right-hand window retains early 18th-century thick glazing bars. The facade includes a plinth and a band course, along with three modern first-floor casements and flanking stacks.

On the east elevation, there is a band course, and the wing features a ground floor door with a casement window above. The right bay has sash windows, and there is one hipped dormer. The north elevation displays early 18th-century cross casements on the ground floor and a two-panel centre door, along with two two-light first-floor windows and one two-light hipped dormer. The northeast wing has a north lean-to and a gable stack, with some sections featuring chequer brick.
