Description

Willows Farmhouse is an 18th-century house constructed from rubble stone with a slobbered rendering and some brick patching. It features an old tile roof and has flanking brick chimneys, with the one on the left being rendered. The building is two storeys high and has three bays. The windows are paired 19th-century casements with timber lintels, and there is a central 20th-century door. To the right, the house has been extended by one bay with a single-storey brick projection that has a slate roof and is set at right angles to the main structure.
