Red House Farmhouse

Red House Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-framed building featuring close studding with a middle rail and tension bracing. The panels are plastered over wattle work, and the south-facing gable end is covered with weatherboarding. The roof is covered with asbestos, which has replaced the original slate. The house has a central brick axial stack and two additional stacks in the outshut.

The layout includes a short hall range and a long cross wing, with the chimney situated between the two sections. The main entrance is located against the stack in the hall range, where it meets the cross wing. It features a six-panelled door with a simple bracketed entablature hood. Next to the entrance is a two-light iron casement window with a transom and a bracketed hood. There are no windows in the high upper storey, but similar windows are present in the weather-boarded gabled return, as well as on the ground floor and first floor of the main range and outshut, and in the attic of the main range.

The projecting gabled cross wing to the right has a doorway to the left of the gable, which is a plank door with a simple bracketed entablature hood. It also features two-light iron casement windows with transoms and small panes on each floor, with a smaller casement window in the attic storey. A later timber-framed outshut is located on the north return elevation, accompanied by a small brick wash- or bake-house at the rear. The rear elevation of the house has a continuous outshut built in two phases, with the earliest likely being an original feature that was later extended. A tall brick stack is positioned against the southwest corner.

Inside, the main fireplace in the hall range has a high bressumer and a bread oven. There are corner fireplaces in the cross wing, which are either blocked or renewed, and they feed into the same stack. A staircase is located at the rear of the stack in the outshut. The cross wing is three rooms deep, with the front room retaining a large 19th-century cheese-press. The rear room in the outshut was formerly a dairy and still has its slate slabs.
