Description

Firth Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse constructed from coursed squared stone with ashlar dressings and a graduated stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and features three main bays, with the right-hand bay set back. It has quoins and a five-panel part-glazed door located in a plain stone surround between the second and third bays. The first and third bays contain a four-pane sash window each, while the second bay has a two-light sash window on both floors. The fourth bay features a twelve-pane side-sliding sash window with a four-pane sash above it. All windows have plain stone surrounds, except for the first-floor window in bay four, which has a stone sill and lintel. The roof is adorned with shaped kneelers and ashlar coping, and there are end stacks as well as one stack on the ridge. The fourth bay has a roof that is hipped to the right and includes an end stack.
