Description

Pitcox Farmhouse, dated 1851, is a two-storey, L-plan farmhouse constructed from squared red sandstone rubble with grey ashlar dressings and stugged finish. It features a base course and chamfered arrises, along with stone mullions. The first-floor windows break the eaves in gabled dormerheads, which have ball finials and corbelled gablet skewputts.

On the southeast elevation, the farmhouse has a three-bay layout, with a wide gabled outer bay to the right that is advanced and features bipartite windows on both floors. At the center, there is a gabled porch set in the re-entrant angle, which has a dated panel in the apex and a boarded door with decorative hinges. The first floor of the porch also has a bipartite window. The outer left bay has bipartite windows on each floor.

The west elevation consists of four irregular bays. The advanced right gabled bay has a leaded piend roof over a canted window at ground level, with a bipartite window above. The center bays each have single windows on both floors, while the lower and slightly recessed left bay also has single windows. There is a later single-storey addition to the left. Projecting gabled service buildings are set in the re-entrant angle to the northeast.

The sash and case windows feature a small-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered with grey slates, and the building has saw-tooth skews and moulded coping on the ashlar stacks.

The property includes gatepiers and retaining walls made of grey ashlar. The gatepiers are polygonal with pyramidal caps, and the rubble retaining walls have semi-circular coping.
