Old Eagles Farmhouse And Attached Outbuilding

Old Eagles Farmhouse and the attached outbuilding is a former farmhouse dating from the mid-18th century, although it has older origins and 20th-century alterations. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with flared headers and has a Welsh slate roof with brick ridge and end stacks. It features a three-unit through passage plan, is two storeys high with an attic, and has a four-window range.

The entrance is a six-panel door located to the left of centre, surrounded by a moulded wood frame and topped with a straight hood supported by curly brackets. To the right on the ground floor is a cross window, while the left side has a 16-pane sash window. The first floor has 12-pane sash windows, all of which have gauged brick flat-arched heads. A high limestone rubble plinth is located to the right of the door, with a brick plinth to the left, a storey band, a bracketed wood eaves cornice, and stone-coped gables with kneelers. There are two hipped roof dormer windows featuring two-light casements.

To the right of the farmhouse is a two-storey, one-window wing that has a three-light casement window on the first floor with a wooden lintel. The former outbuilding to the left is a single-storey and loft structure made of red brick with flared headers and a 20th-century plain-tile roof. It has a blocked rectangular window on the front and a round arch-headed loft door on the weather-boarded left gable.

Inside, the farmhouse features stop-chamfered spine beams and an open fireplace with a stop-chamfered bressumer. There is a small panelled room with a fitted corner cupboard that has shaped shelves. The large first-floor room includes a carved wood chimneypiece with veined marble slips, and the roof is supported by collar trusses with two tiers of purlins.
