Redgate Farmhouse

Redgate Farmhouse is a two-storey farmhouse built of rubble stone, with most of its render removed in 1999. It features a slate roof and three red brick chimneys. The main front has three windows, with an additional one-window service range added to the right, separated by a straight joint. The windows, which are metal and set in brick surrounds, were installed around 1960 and are being removed in 1999. A concrete porch, which has two eroded small obelisk finials on top that are likely not original, leads to the door in the third bay. An earlier description from 1980 mentions the porch having simple columns with obelisks. The south end of the farmhouse is whitewashed and rendered, with a blocked loft light, while the north end has a loft light and a single-storey addition with a door leading to the kitchen. There are pairs of casement windows on the north side and a triple casement on the west side. The rear is made of whitewashed rubble, with the right side projecting as an outshut. The left side features timber cross-windows on each floor, with an iron opening light, while the outshut has metal triple casements on each floor to the right.

The interior has a two-room plan with a large inglenook fireplace at the south end and a post-and-panel partition separating the rooms. The lobby entry is likely not original, and the lower room at the south end was added in the 18th century. The main room contains heavy chamfered beams with flitch plates inserted during restoration at each end, and stepped curved stops that mimic the originals. The chamfered joists have triangular stops, and the fireplace lintel has been replaced with a 20th-century oak chamfered version. The fireplace has chamfered stone sides and includes a brick-lined bread oven.

The post-and-panel partition, dating from around 1600, features chamfered posts that are stopped at the bases. The doorway at the left end is blocked with reused chamfered posts similar to those found elsewhere on the partition. There is an opening at the right end with a plank door, and a central opening that has been cut through, currently obscured by furniture as of 1999. The upper room has two beams, one of which has been replaced with steel, and thin squared joists between this and the partition, along with one thicker squared joist that is reused. The south end, likely added in the 18th century, has two plastered axial beams with thin cornice mouldings, and features earlier 19th-century six-panel doors. There is an off-centre fireplace at the south end with a painted timber surround.
