Description
Unthank Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse constructed of coursed red sandstone, sitting on a chamfered plinth, with a graduated green slate roof and end stone chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and features three bays, along with a two-storey single-bay extension to the left. The main entrance consists of a four-panel door with a plain raised surround and a cornice supported by console brackets. The sash windows, which include glazing bars, are framed by plain raised stone surrounds. The mid-19th-century extension has similar stonework and a Welsh slate roof, with a plank door and a ground-floor sash window with glazing bars, as well as a two-pane sash window above.
