Description
Prospect Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1797, constructed from Doulting rubble with dressed quoins, coped verges, and 19th-century brick stacks, one of which on the right side collapsed at the time of a 1983 survey. The building has a slate roof and is rectangular in plan with a symmetrical facade. It is two storeys high with an attic and features three bays. The windows are three-light hollow moulded stone mullioned windows, although the mullions for the first-floor windows have been removed and replaced with 19th-century casement windows of three lights, each with a label above. The central door opening has an edge moulded stone architrave and a triangular pediment supported by cut stone brackets. The door itself is panelled, with the top two panels being glazed. Above the door is a stone plaque with raised lettering that reads: "W.E.S. 1797". There is a single attic light on the left return of the building.
