Description

Oldcastle Court Farmhouse is a two-storey building with attics, constructed from rendered and painted red sandstone rubble, although this stone is only visible on one gable end. The farmhouse features Welsh slate roofs and includes a single-storey extension on the north side, as well as a probable extension with a catslide roof at the southeast corner.

The entrance elevation has three windows. The left window projects under a catslide roof, while the ground floor has a modern French window and a gabled dormer above that contains a 4-pane casement. The other windows are cross-framed small paned casements. The entrance is located in a baffle entry position against the stack, featuring a Victorian door with two glass panels and a gabled hood adorned with scalloped bargeboards. A massive stack is positioned behind the entrance, with gable end stacks on both the left and right sides; the left stack is external, while the right stack is internal. The right gable is unrendered and partly obscured by a single-storey extension, which has two small garret windows.

The left gable end has two modern windows with top opening lights on the ground floor. The first floor features a cross-framed casement next to the stack and a 4-light casement in the extension, along with a 3-pane garret window next to the stack.

On the garden elevation, there are three windows and a full-height stair tower that projects over a low porch. To the left of the porch, all four windows are cross-framed casements with small panes. The porch has modern casements on the half-landings above a very low doorway that likely enters under the lowest landing. The gable ridge of the porch is lower than that of the main roof. To the right of the porch, the ground floor window has been partly converted into a door, with a cross-framed casement above.

The interior was not available for inspection at the time of the resurvey in April 1997.
