Old Impton Farmhouse

Old Impton Farmhouse is a late medieval building with L-plan ranges on the east side, featuring an early 17th-century porch. A parlour wing was added to the rear, which overlooks Presteigne to the south. These additions are believed to have been made around 1625 by Richard Flower, who was the High Sheriff at the time.

The entrance front has one storey and steps uphill to the right, with a higher rear gable to the left. The centre features a two-storey timber-framed porch, and to the right is a one-storey plus attic returned range. The building is mostly constructed of colour-washed rubble with some brickwork, and roughcast to the right. It has stone slate roofs with bargeboards, an exposed tie-beam on the right gable, and a massive 16th-century stone stack in the centre of the roof. The windows are later casements.

The porch is particularly notable for its splendid jettied design, with close studding on the sides and oriel treatment on the first-floor casement windows. It features a moulded cill beam and a diagonally studded apron. The carved bressemers are supported by timber piers, and the porch has a four-centred arch enriched with Gothic tracery patterns, along with carved angle braces adorned with roses and carpenters' tools. The ceiling has moulded intersecting ribs with feathered stop chamfers, and there is a boarded inner door.

The two-storey parlour range has a south front that partly overlaps the earlier gable end to the right, with the purlin of the older roof supporting the later gable. It has a stone slab roof with a large stone stack on the rear pitch, which may have been enlarged from a lateral chimney. The walls are plastered, and there are curved brackets supporting the jetty, along with some close studding, a jettied gable, and a rubble chimney breast on the west gable end. The first floor has four two-light casements, while the ground floor features sashes with glazing bars, including one pair grouped with a pilastered door piece. The right end has four-light casements under a relieving arch.

Inside, the farmhouse retains massive chamfered trusses and fireplaces from the earlier ranges. The parlour range features fine roll-moulded beams with feathered stop chamfers and counter-changing joists, as well as some panelling that is partly re-used, along with a later timber stair.
