Chesterbank Farmhouse

Chesterbank Farmhouse is an 18th-century building that was reworked and extended in the mid-19th century. It is a symmetrical, two-storey, three-bay farmhouse with a rectangular plan and a gabled porch at the front. To the side, there is a lower two-storey, L-plan range, along with a further lean-to addition beyond and a porch at the rear. The exterior features heavily-pointed sandstone rubble with sandstone ashlar dressings, including a base course, narrow quoin strips, droved quoins, and droved long and short surrounds to raised margins, as well as projecting cills.

On the west elevation, the principal block has three bays, with a single window in the gabled porch that projects at the center. This porch includes scrolled skewputts and a squat finial, with a panelled door on the return to the right. There are single windows in the bays flanking the entrance at ground level, and above, single windows aligned at the first floor feature finialled, curvilinear gabled dormerheads that break the eaves. The lower, two-bay range to the right is recessed and has single windows on both floors in each bay, with smaller upper windows also featuring plain gabled dormerheads. A single-storey lean-to addition is recessed to the outer right.

The east elevation shows the main block to the right with single windows centered at both ground and first floors. The lower L-plan range is attached to the left and has a projecting wing on the outer left, with a lean-to porch in the re-entrant angle to the right.

The farmhouse has replacement timber windows throughout and grey slate piended roofs, along with corniced sandstone ridge stacks and various cans.

The interior was not seen in 1999. The garden is enclosed by rubble-coped walls, which are partly rendered, surrounding the garden to the front and side.
