Description
Fishwick Mains Farmhouse is an earlier 19th century house, possibly incorporating elements from an earlier structure, with later additions and alterations. It features a symmetrical front, is two stories high, and has three bays, along with a two-story wing at the rear that forms an L-shape. There is also a single-storey, near U-shaped ancillary range that encloses a courtyard to the north. The front is made of coursed and tooled pink and cream sandstone, while the sides and rear are constructed from tooled and squared rubble, with ashlar dressings. The building includes a base course, narrow quoin strips, droved quoins, and long and short surrounds to the openings, as well as projecting cills.
On the south (entrance) elevation, there is a pilastered and corniced classical doorpiece centered at the ground level, featuring a plain frieze and a block pediment above a two-leaf glazed door with a two-pane fanlight. Flanking this are canted windows at ground level with sawtooth half-pitched stone roofs, and there are single windows in all bays on the first floor.
The west (side) elevation shows a three-bay principal block to the right, with a centered two-leaf glazed door at ground level and a horizontal-paned fanlight above. There are single windows on both floors to the left, and blind painted imitation windows centered on the first floor and at both floors to the right. A regularly fenestrated two-bay wing is slightly recessed to the left.
On the north (rear) elevation, the principal block has a small window centered at ground level, a tall stair window above, and single windows on both floors to the left. The piended wing projecting to the right has a blank elevation, and there is a single-storey lean-to porch to the left. A boarded timber opening is found in the projecting ancillary range attached to the outer left.
The east (side) elevation features a single window centered at ground level and a blind painted imitation window aligned on the first floor. There is a boarded timber door centered in the projecting single-storey ancillary range attached to the outer right.
The windows predominantly have 12-pane lying-pane glazing in timber sash and case. The roof is covered with grey slate and has piended sections, with stepped ridge and wallhead stacks and circular cans.
The interior was not seen in 1999. The boundary walls consist of rubble-coped rubble walls flanking the driveway to the north and partially enclosing the site.
