Description

Gill Farmhouse is a house dated 1803, as inscribed on a panel above the door, which reads "Anne Walker." The building is constructed of rendered rubble with rusticated quoins on a plinth and features a lintel band above the first-floor windows. It has a graduated slate roof with rendered end chimneys. The house has a symmetrical, two-storey, three-bay front, with a central panelled door and a rectangular fanlight in a stone surround, topped by a bracketed cornice. There is a single sash window under a hoodmould with labels on either side, along with three additional sashes above, all set in stone surrounds.
