Description

Tympath Farm is a farmhouse that features whitewashed render and a slate roof, with stone end stacks. The right stack is connected to the brick stack of an adjoining house, and both stacks are raised in brick. The building has one and a half storeys and is double-fronted, showcasing two small gabled dormers with slated gables and sides, along with casement pair windows. On the ground floor, there is a 20th-century casement-pair window with top-lights on each side of the door, which is located in a gabled porch with glazed sides. The stone sills are notable, and the walls have a slight slope, suggesting a possible early date. There is a lean-to on the left end, and the rear of the building includes a rendered wing to the left. The interior was not accessible at the time of the survey.
