Description
Castle Farmhouse is a late 18th-century building that was originally two houses but is now one. It features coursed gritstone and a pantile roof, with two storeys and a continuous outshut at the rear. The front has five first-floor windows and quoins. There are two doors between the ground-floor windows: the left door has six panels, with the upper two being glazed, while the right door also has six panels and a concrete lintel above. On the ground floor, at the far right, there is a 20th-century window frame with six fixed lights and a concrete lintel. The remaining windows are two- and three-light horizontal-sliding sashes with glazing bars. The building has end stacks and a ridge stack located opposite the door on the right. Inside, a vertical post can be seen in the wall between the living room and rear kitchen, along with additional timbers visible in the first-floor front room, indicating that this was originally a single-aisled timber-framed house that was encased in stone in the late 18th century.
