Description

The Middle Farm House is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 18th century. It is constructed from local stone that is cut and squared in a random coursed pattern, and it features double Roman clay tiles beneath coped gables, along with brick chimney stacks at each end. The building has two storeys and three bays. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door, four of which are glazed, and it is set within a 19th-century ironwork porch that has a pyramidal roof. The windows are three-light casements with exposed timber lintels. There is a one-bay extension to the west that is slightly taller and includes casement windows, with the ground floor window featuring a segmental arch above it.
