Naish's Farm House, with Front Boundary Wall and Gate Piers

Naish's Farm House, along with its front boundary wall and gate piers, is a farmhouse dating from the early 18th century. The house is constructed of local stone, squared and cut with random coursing, and has a plain clay tile roof with base courses of stone slates between the coped gables. Rendered end chimney stacks are prominent, and the overall plan is in the shape of a 'T'. A central stone porch with a ball finial and clay tile roof features a semi-circular doorway arch with a keystone, leading to a six-panel door. Casement windows are set within flat, voussoired arches also featuring keystones; the ground floor windows are cruciform and contain some crown glass. An extension on the east side, of the 19th century, matches the original fabric and includes similar casements and a semi-circular headed doorway that is now blocked with a window. A gabled stair wing to the rear also has a ball finial, a part-glazed door with eight panes, and two semi-circular headed windows above, leaded with significant amounts of crown glass. The interior has seen little alteration beyond providing access to the extension. A large entrance hall, notable for its size relative to the other rooms, features a chequered stone flag floor, a balustraded staircase, 18th-century doors and doorcases, some ceiling cornices, and a bolection mould fireplace. The front boundary wall is constructed of low local stone, with shallow coping that sweeps up to square gate piers approximately 1.5 metres high and terminating in ball finials. The property is historically significant as it was the home of the Parsons family for several generations, including the eccentric Henry Parsons, who built Parson’s Steeple on Steart Hill.
