Description
Home Farmhouse is a 2-storey house with an attic and basement, constructed from rubble stone and topped with a slate roof. It features early to mid-19th century fretted barge boards and a yellow-brick ridge stack on the northern cross wing. The main range, which has three bays and faces west, includes 19th century openings framed in freestone. The entrance is located in the left-hand bay, which has a replacement ribbed door and a small-pane overlight above it. Above the entrance is a 16-pane hornless sash window. The narrow central bay is slightly projected and features a 30-pane sash window on the lower storey, with an inserted casement window above. The right-hand bay is blank and shows a full-height vertical joint, indicating where the house was extended in the 19th century.
The northern cross wing has a higher eaves line and larger quoins. Its west gable end has inserted 2-light and 3-light casement windows, and beneath the sill of the lower window is a re-set fragment of a nook shaft from the abbey. The northern side wall features an inserted 3-light window on the lower storey and a single-storey 19th century roughcast wing on the left side, which has a segmental-headed 2-light iron-framed window with Gothic small-pane glazing, along with an inserted window to its right. The rear side also includes a 2-light window, although only one of the iron-framed casements remains. To its left is a replacement door. The rear gable end of the northern cross wing has a tablet inscribed 'WL 1806' and replaced windows. The rear of the main range also has replacement windows. At the southern end, there is a short rear wing with a lean-to facing the back of the house. On the southern side, which faces the river, the rear wing creates a continuous two-window elevation with the southern gable end of the main range. Replacement casement windows are set under flat stone arches. In the gable of the main range, there are three re-set stepped shaft capitals taken from the abbey. The basement features a boarded door.
