Description

Shotley Farmhouse, originally shown as Lime Farm on the Ordnance Survey map, is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with later 19th-century alterations. It is constructed of squared coursed lias and brick, topped with a Welsh slate roof. The building originally had a three-unit plan, which has been extended to a four-unit plan. It stands two storeys high and features a three-window range of 19th-century casements with glazing bars, all set under wooden lintels. To the right of the center, there is a part-glazed 19th-century door, also beneath a wooden lintel. The farmhouse has brick and stone stacks located at the ridge and at the ends.

To the right, there is a one-bay extension that is likely early 18th century, while a one-bay 19th-century extension to the left has been converted into a garage. The rear elevation includes two 19th-century lean-to extensions, and the first-floor wall has been raised in brick. Inside, there are remains of three open fireplaces, one of which has an original bressumer exposed. The interior also features stop-chamfered spine beams, some of which are now boxed.
