Description

Home Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century and 19th century. It is built of uncoursed limestone and ironstone rubble, topped with a slate roof and features brick stacks. The building is arranged in a U-plan and has two storeys plus an attic, with four bays.

The doorway in the right bay has a flat wooden hood, a rectangular fanlight, and a four-panel door. To the left of the doorway is a window with a wood lintel and a two-light transomed wood casement. There is also a blocked window in the left bay with a wood lintel, and on the first floor, there is a similar blocked window along with three two-light casement windows to the right.

To the right, there is a gabled wing that is two storeys and has an attic, consisting of two bays. This wing features 17th-century stone mullioned two-light windows with square hoods on both the ground and first floors, as well as a smaller similar window in the attic. The left gabled wing is two storeys and one bay, with a three-light wood casement window on the right side.

There is a one-storey barn extension to the left front, which dates from the 19th century. The interior has not been inspected.
