Full Description

{1} The Present farmhouse originally appears to have been a pair of symmetrical C19th cottages, constructed from dressed, coursed ironstone. Unlike Hunsbury Hill Farm and Briar Hill Farm which stand nearby,, it appears that there was no original farmhouse to this farm and therefore the buildings could be considered as stock keeper's cottages or a steading. They have subsiquently been turned into a single dwelling house. The building is being used as offices at present, the interior having been altered to accommodate this change of purpose.
All of the windows have timber lintels and modern UPVC glazing throughout the main building.
