Description

Church Farmhouse is a farmhouse that has been converted into a house, likely dating from the early 17th century, though it has undergone multiple phases of construction. It was restored in 1980. The building is made of coursed limestone rubble and features a plain tile roof, which was originally thatched. It has coped gables, a brick and stone ridge stack, and brick end stacks. The farmhouse is two storeys high and has a plinth and quoins.

On the ground floor, there are three early 19th century flat-roofed canted bay windows with gudgeon-hung iron-framed casements, positioned on either side of a six-panel entrance door, where the top two panels are glazed. To the left, there is a blocked fire window and a single-light iron-framed casement in a blocked doorway, both with wooden lintels. The first floor features two 2-light iron-framed casement windows and two 3-light ovolo-moulded stone mullioned windows. To the right, a large timber-framed gateway with a plain board gate supports a rendered brick first-floor addition that includes a 2-light casement window.

At the rear, there is a stark addition of rendered brick along with a more recent one-storey kitchen extension. Inside, the right-hand room on the ground floor has a large inglenook fireplace with a slightly cambered, chamfered, and stopped bressumer. The left-hand ground floor room features a chamfered cross-beam and a sympathetic 20th-century stone chimney piece. There is a wooden dog-gate at the foot of the stairs. The building has a raised cruck roof construction, although the upper part was damaged by fire in 1947 and is now missing.
