Description
Townhead Farm is a traditional farmhouse, likely built in the early 19th century, that stands two stories tall with three bays. It has been divided into flats and features a 20th century forestair at the rear. The building is constructed from random sandstone rubble with polished ashlar dressings and includes an eaves course.
Attached to the north of the farmhouse is a steading range. There is also a detached single storey and attic range to the north, which contains stables at the eastern end and what was presumably a former threshing barn at the western end.
A conical-roofed circular horsemill is attached to the north side of the stable range. It has five wide openings, currently fitted with 20th century cast-iron gates. Inside the horsemill, there is an original timber truss.
The farmhouse features non-traditional uPVC windows. It has ashlar-coped skews and coped sandstone ashlar gablehead stacks, with red clay cans. The roofs are covered with grey slate.
