Description
Red Flatt Farmhouse and the adjoining barns date back to 1707, as indicated by an inscription over the rear entrance. The farmhouse features Flemish bond brickwork with painted V-jointed quoins and a graduated greenslate roof that has been repaired with Welsh slate, along with brick chimney stacks. It is two storeys high and has five bays, with an outbuilding under a common roof to the right and a lower hipped-roof barn to the left.
The front entrance includes a 20th-century door set within a bolection-moulded painted stone surround, complete with a panelled frieze and a moulded cornice supported by console brackets. The windows are single-pane sash types framed in painted stone architraves. The barn to the right features a central casement window in a rebated and chamfered surround, flanked by two 20th-century windows and open brick vents above. The barn to the left has a ground floor Venetian window and an oval blocked opening above it. The rear entrance to the barn also has a dated and inscribed lintel.
