Description
Poplars Farmhouse is a house dated 1654, located in Chacombe on Silver Street. It was enlarged around 1700 and is constructed of coursed squared ironstone with limestone dressings and a thatched roof, featuring flanking stone and brick stacks. The building has an L-plan layout with three bays, two storeys, and an attic.
The central doorway is topped with a square hood and features a ribbed plank door with a side-light to the left. To the right of the door is a two-light window with stone mullions and a square hood. The left and right bays each have similar four-light windows, while the first floor has three-light stone mullioned windows with square hoods. A central gabled half-dormer contains a two-light stone mullioned window. The right gable end is coped with kneelers.
On the right side, there are four-light stone mullioned windows on the ground floor, with three-light and two-light windows above. The left wing, likely added around 1700, is made of coursed ironstone rubble and has one bay, two storeys, and an attic, with windows that have wood lintels and mostly renewed wood casements.
Inside, alterations were made around 1700 when the through passage entry was widened and a winder stair was built in the new extension. There is a stone corner fireplace with a four-centred arch in the ground floor room, and the original stop-chamfered ceiling joists remain.
