Description
Watergore Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse with origins dating back to the 17th century, which has been modified over time. It is constructed from Ham stone in a near-ashlar style and features a triple-roll clay tiled roof with plain gables and brick end chimney stacks. The building stands two storeys high and consists of two bays.
On the ground floor, there are three-light hollow-chamfered mullioned windows set in chamfered recesses with labels. The upper floor has three-light 20th-century casements. Between the bays, there is a wide boarded door with a toplight, which is protected by a late 20th-century ashlar porch featuring a plain chamfered opening in a coped gable with a finial and a plain clay tiled roof.
Attached to the west gable is a two-storey farm building that matches the farmhouse, being straight-jointed but of a similar period. This building has an oculus or pitching eye above and a stable door below, flanked by two 20th-century windows under concrete lintels. To the east gable, there is a single-storey extension, a late 20th-century modification of a previous structure, which also matches the farmhouse. This extension includes a three-light chamfer-mullioned window with a label and a stable door.
The interior has not been seen recently, but a previous listing mentions deep chamfered beams with run-out stops and exposed plates, a wide kitchen fireplace with a chamfered arched beam and stone jambs, as well as a chamfered stone fireplace in the parlour.
