Cards Farmhouse

Cards Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1605, constructed from local stone with Bath stone dressings. It features a Welsh slate roof with stone ridges and plain gables, along with stone and brick chimney stacks. The building was originally designed in an "L" plan and has three storeys with three bays on the south elevation. The windows are reserved chamfer mullioned with leaded lights, consisting of three lights without labels, and the top mitres are unworked. There are only two windows between the bays on the second floor. The central entrance has a boarded door set into a Doric surround, which includes flat pilasters and an entablature. At the rear, there are more matching windows, some of which may be later additions while others are reused. The interior has been altered but still retains two notable former external doorways: one with a flat head and the other with a pointed arch, both of which are moulded. A datestone on the rear is from the late 20th century but records a date that was formerly on a front window lintel, which is now lost.
