Whaitber Farmhouse

Whaitber Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from around 1740, with alterations made in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of slobbered rubble with painted stone dressings and has a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays. The entrance on the right features a segmental-arched head, impost blocks, and a moulded keystone above a flat-roofed porch, with a six-panel door that has the upper two panels glazed. To the right of the entrance is a blocked single-light window on the ground floor. On the left, there is a 19th-century ground-floor window with 20th-century casements, as well as a smaller 19th-century window with sashes and glazing bars. Above the porch on the upper floor is a 19th-century window with eight-pane sashes. The farmhouse has two ridge stacks. At the rear, there is a gatepost cap inscribed with "J + B 1738," which is reputed to be for J Brown. Additionally, there is a lead rainwater head from the left-hand gable that is dated 1782 and is now located in an adjoining barn. The left-hand bay of Whaitber East Farmhouse now belongs to Whaitber Farmhouse.
