Description
Allington Farmhouse is a 2-storey building constructed with render and topped with a slate roof, featuring brick chimneys. At the front facing Cox Lane, the house has a symmetrical three-window arrangement with a central door that is adorned with an ornamental cast iron porch. The ground floor windows are tripartite multipaned casements, while the upper floor windows are double multipaned casements. There are chimneys at each end of the roof, rising from the gables. The return elevations include small multipaned cast-iron windows that light the attic. The right-hand return has an attached lower 2-storey range with a dentil eaves cornice, a door beneath a lean-to porch with a slate roof, and two small casements on the upper floor, along with two multipaned casements on the ground floor. The left-hand return features a later 19th-century range at the rear.
Inside, the entrance hall contains a staircase that has an early 19th-century character. The rooms typically have 6-panel doors. The rear section includes two rooms with heavy chamfered and stopped principal beams. An inner wall framed in timber is visible on the upper floor, and the doors in this section are mostly of the plank and latch type, with some featuring shaped strap hinges. The roof was not accessible during the 1995 survey.
The farmhouse has group value with Allington Farm Gatehouse.
