Description

Hoseley Bank Farmhouse is a two-storey building featuring a picturesque Gothick style. The front has four windows and is rendered, with rendered chimneys, a slate roof, and red ridge tiles. The rectangular plan includes extensions to the side and rear. The front elevation is symmetrical, with an added bay on the right, a string course, and a dentil eaves cornice. There is a central full-height semi-octagonal bay with an entrance that has a later porch. To the left, there is an arched window with Gothick glazing detail and a label above, while to the right, there is a similar label above a blocked window. The upper floor has a central window with a label, and the windows on each side are blocked. Each side bay features one window per floor with labels above, all of which are cast-iron multipaned casements with Gothick glazing detail and ogee heads. An added one-bay range on the right matches the style but has timber windows. To the left, there is a low range that is attached and set back. The rear includes a central semicircular bay and some windows similar to those on the front elevation.

Inside, the farmhouse retains some doors with ogee heads and several later 19th-century fireplaces. The upper floor features plank and latch doors with strap hinges. The service accommodation, dating from the late 19th century, includes original narrow stairs and rooms with plank partitions above a dairy or cold room.
