Description
Cheriton House Farmhouse is an 18th-century farmhouse with a former cottage attached. It is constructed of local stone rubble, featuring Cary stone quoins for the house, and has a Welsh slate roof for the house and plain clay tiles for the cottage, both with simple gables. There are brick chimney stacks on each gable. The building has two storeys, with the house comprising one bay and three bays, while the cottage has two bays, with the three main bays of the house being taller.
Bay 1 contains two single-light small pane casements. Bays 2, 3, and 4 feature 16-pane sash windows beneath slightly segmental arched heads made of voussoired brick with keystones. A six-panel door, which is part glazed, is located in a slight recess at lower bay 3, accessed by three steps and set within an elliptical keystoned arch. Bays 5 and 6 have small two-light leaded casement windows, with the lower pair situated under exposed timber lintels. The interior has not been seen.
