Description

Mill House Farmhouse is a building with roughcast render, likely over brick, featuring painted stone angle quoins and a coved eaves cornice. It has a slate roof with chimneys at the gable ends of the original house. The original house is one and a half storeys tall, designed in a two-unit plan with a central entrance. It has a six-panelled door topped by a scalloped barrel canopy supported by decorative brackets. Flanking the entrance are two-light mullioned and transomed windows (renewed), each with swept hood-moulds. Three dormers break the eaves line, each containing similar windows and fretted bargeboards with pendant finials.

To the left, there is a two-storey extension from the late 18th century that features a plank door and a renewed two-light casement window. Above this, a flush-framed twelve-pane sash window interrupts a raised string course. The extension has a coped gable with a moulded kneeler and a small projection on the left-hand gable return, which houses an internal safe.

Inside, the layout has been altered, but one 18th-century doorway with a lugged architrave remains. There is also a cast-iron safe in the upper room of the late 18th-century addition, linked to the building's former use as an accounts office.
