Description

Skinners Hill Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse located in North Coker. It is constructed of Ham stone rubble with ashlar dressings and features plain clay tiles with fish-scale bands and plain verges. The building has two storeys and two bays, with three-light hollow chamfer mullioned windows that have rectangular leaded panes and no labels. There is a 20th-century central door beneath an exposed timber lintel, and above the door is a sundial inscribed with "ET 1722." At the rear, there is a derelict lean-to. The interior has not been seen, and it is unclear why this farmhouse consists of four distinct buildings arranged in an unusual sequence.
