Description

West Newton Farmhouse is an earlier to mid 19th century farmhouse that has undergone later additions and alterations. It features a symmetrical two-storey, three-bay traditional design, with single and two-storey wings forming an L-shape at the rear. The front is constructed of squared and snecked tooled cream sandstone, with polished and droved dressings, while the sides and rear are made of tooled random rubble sandstone. The building has a raised base course, droved quoins, and droved long and short surrounds to polished openings, along with a consoled doorpiece and projecting cills.

On the south (front) elevation, there is a part-glazed timber panelled door at the centre of the ground floor, topped by a 4-pane fanlight and supported by consoled brackets beneath a corniced canopy. Above this door, there is a single window aligned with it. The outer left and right bays each contain a single window on both floors.

The north (rear) elevation features a timber door at the centre of the ground floor within a single-storey lean-to addition, flanked by single windows. At the first floor, there are single windows recessed in the centre and outer right bays. A two-storey wing projects to the outer left.

On the east (side) elevation, single windows are offset to the right of centre on both floors, with additional single windows in a lower two-storey addition to the outer right.

The west (side) elevation has a main gable with a single window in the left bay at ground level and another single window centred in a single-storey lean-to addition to the outer left.

The windows predominantly feature 12-pane glazing in timber sash and case style, although some modern windows are present in the later additions. The roof is covered with grey slate, has raised stone skews, and includes brick-built apex stacks with various circular cans. The rainwater goods have been replaced.

The interior was not seen in 1997.
