Description
Pipton farmhouse is a three-storey building with cellars, constructed from rubble stone and topped with a slate roof. It features a double pile plan and has a symmetrical front elevation. The central entrance consists of a pair of margin-glazed doors set within a panelled doorcase, which is located in a late 19th to early 20th century glazed gabled porch. The front windows are twelve-paned sashes beneath flat stone arches, having been renewed around 1990 in a similar style. At the attic level, there are six-paned sashes with brick quoined reveals. The wide cut modillion eaves and hipped roof are complemented by four-flue brick chimneys at each end. The side elevations display irregular late 20th century window arrangements, and there is a single-storey service wing on the northwest side.
Inside, the stair hall curves to accommodate a fine staircase featuring a wreathed handrail and bracketed treads, topped by a dome at the head of the stairwell. The rear dining room includes a marble fireplace and an inset ceiling roundel. The extensive cellars contain a still room and large barrels for cider making, a practice that was once common in this area.
