Description

Fosse Way Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse built in the early 19th century. It is constructed from cut and squared ham stone and features a Welsh slate roof with stepped coped gables and brick chimney stacks. The building has a double roof plan and stands two storeys high with five bays. The windows are casements with two lights and leaded panes in bays one to three, while bay two has no window on the upper floor. Bays four and five have horizontal-bar casements. The plain openings have voussoired flat arches, and there is a boarded door in a heavy frame between bays four and five. A 20th-century lean-to is attached to the west gable, featuring a glazed door, and there is a timber and corrugated iron lean-to against the east gable. The rear roof is covered with double Roman clay tiles. The interior has not been seen.
