Description
Baytree Farmhouse is a semi-detached house from the 17th century that has been modified. It is constructed from roughly cut and squared ham stone, with ashlar dressings, and some stones may be fire-reddened. The building features a double Roman clay tiled roof with tall coped gables, likely replacing an original thatched roof, and has brick and intermediate chimney stacks.
The house has two storeys and three bays. The first bay includes hollow-chamfered mullioned windows set in chamfered recesses, with a four-light window above that lacks a label, and below it, there is a 1+3+1-light angled bay topped with a hipped Welsh slate roof over a moulded eaves string. The second bay at the upper level and both levels of the third bay have three-light horizontal-bar casement windows with timber lintels above and concrete below. The lower level of the second bay features a chamfered cambered-arched doorway without a label, which frames a 20th-century door. There is a matching lower outbuilding attached to the southwest. The interior has not been seen.
