Carleton Biggin Farmhouse

Carleton Biggin Farmhouse is a house that dates partly from 1571 or earlier and partly from the mid-19th century. It is constructed of rubble and dressed stone, topped with a stone slate roof. The front of the house has two storeys and features three bays of tall sash windows, although straight joints between the bays suggest that this is a modification of an older building. The left gable wall is made of slobbered rubble and has three deep-set double chamfered stone mullion windows, with two close together on the ground floor and one above; all of these windows have a hollow inner chamfer. Between the storeys, there is a stone with raised characters that includes the date 1571 along with the initials AC, which stand for Clifford. A weathered plinth of dressed stone extends to the eaves at one point. The interior does not have any notable features. This building appears to be a remnant of a hunting lodge associated with the Cliffords, as indicated by the Ordnance Survey map from 1853, which shows a much larger structure.
