Description

Cross Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. It has a roughcast exterior, coped verges, and a slate roof with brick stacks. The building features a cross-passage plan and is two storeys high, with a facade that has three bays on one side and two on the other. The windows are 20th-century two-light casements. The door is located between the bay sets and is framed by a shouldered architrave with a triangular pediment and a later hood, leading to a plank door.
