Ford Farmhouse And Railings In Retaining Wall Fronting Road

Ford Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse built from random rubble chert stone, topped with a slate roof and featuring brick stacks at the gable ends. The building is designed in an L-shape, with the main entrance located on the gable end facing the road to the northeast, while the longer foldyard frontage faces northwest.

The northeast front has two storeys with a symmetrical arrangement of bays. On the first floor, there is a three-light leaded iron casement window on the left and a similar window below it. To the right in the gable end, there is a 20th-century window above a panelled door. The right return of the building, which leads onto the foldyard, has two leaded three-light casements on the first floor, and a catslide roof from the eaves level creates a porch and outshot at the kitchen end. The ground floor on the right features similar windows and a square-headed doorway. The interior has not been seen.

In front of the main elevation facing the road, there are cast iron railings set in a random rubble retaining wall.
