Description
Church Farmhouse is a Grade II listed building that consists of two attached houses, which have been converted into a barn. The structure dates from the early 17th century and the later 17th century, with further alterations and remodelling occurring in the 19th century. It is constructed of squared sandstone, partly resting on a chamfered plinth, and features a pantile roof with brick stacks. The building is two storeys high and has four windows.
At the centre of the façade, there are remains of a porch that projects outwards, which contains a plank door. To the left of the porch is a door with four recessed panels and an overlight, set beneath a timber lintel. There are inserted windows flanking the door on both floors, including a 16-pane sash window in the left opening on the ground floor. Beyond the right opening on the ground floor, there is a chamfered lintel that may have once been a fire window. The openings to the right of the porch are also later additions.
On the ground floor, there is a stable door and one leaf of a double board door, both featuring timber lintels, along with vent slits. The first floor has a lifting door to the left and a square pitching window to the right. The rear of the building is likely the original front, displaying a two-storey, two-window layout, with a later two-storey, two-window section to the right. The original doorway at the centre has been blocked and replaced with a fixed light. To the left of the doorway, there are flat-mullioned windows, one of which has been lowered and contains an incomplete three-light casement, while the centre window has been altered to form a doorway. The left end features four-light windows on both floors that are blocked but unaltered. The first-floor opening to the right has an inserted horizontal-sliding sash with a timber lintel, and there is an inserted window on the ground floor to the right. The first-floor window to the left has three large-pane lights set in a double-chamfered surround beneath a flat drip mould.
Internally, against the right gable wall, there are remains of a full-height stone firehood with a small, deeply splayed opening to the left. The right-hand room of the later house contains a wide fireplace with a chamfered segmental arch supported by chamfered bar-stopped jambs. The interior also features a chamfered spine beam and square-section joists.
