Description

Numbers 11 and 13, known as The Old Farmhouse, is a house that was originally a pair, dating from the 17th century. It has been altered and extended over time. The building features a timber frame with diagonal braces, whitewashed brick infill, and a rubble stone plinth. The left bay is a later extension made of whitewashed brick. The roof is tiled, with a central chimney made of thin brick and a later chimney on the left side. The house is L-shaped, with one storey and an attic, comprising four bays.

On the ground floor, the three bays on the left have paired leaded casement windows, with the central window being older. The windows in the eaves-line dormers above include a 20th-century paired leaded casement with a sloping roof on the left, an older three-light leaded casement with a gable in the centre, and a paired barred wooden casement with a sloping roof on the right. The right bay features a 19th to 20th-century gabled extension made of whitewashed brick, which includes 20th-century leaded casements. There is a 20th-century door in the centre of the range, and a weatherboarded extension to the left.
