Description

Clitsome Farmhouse is a house dating from the early 18th century, with alterations made in the 19th century. The building features a porch made of red sandstone random rubble, while the rest of the structure is built from red brick in Flemish bond. It has two flat string courses that return at the ends, a slate roof, and brick stacks. The house is two and a half storeys tall and consists of three bays. It has inserted gabled dormers with six-pane sash windows, flanking a central gabled porch that is also two and a half storeys high. Below the porch is a 20th-century window, and the ground floor has 16-pane sash windows. The porch has a segmental-headed opening and a partly panelled inner door. The right side of the house has two bays with segmental-headed window openings on the top two floors, while the ground floor is obscured by an addition that is not included in the listing. The interior has not been viewed.
