Building record 2707/0/52 - Home Farm, Station Road, Nassington

A house that was built circa 1600 located on the eastern side of Station Road opposite the junction with Parkway Close. The building is constructed of coursed rubble with a thatched and pantiled roof with stone and brick, ridge and gable chimney stacks. The original build was of two cells under the thatched part of the house which was extended to the south under the pantile roof during the 18th century. The building was single story with attics but was raised in the early 19th century to two storeys. The road façade has a symmetrical three window front and central door with two, three light casement windows to the extension.

{1} No. 14, Home Farm, two storeys, the N. section thatched, the S. pantiled. It probably originated in the early 17th century as a class 1b house of one storey and attics. In the 18th century a two-storey addition was built on the S. to give a class 1a plan and in the early 19th century the earlier part was raised to two storeys to conform. The stops on axial beams and the character of the fireplace bressummer suggest an early 17th-century date. An upper room had a plaster floor until recently. Behind the house is a small barn of three bays with a panel which appears to read '1790–1799'. probably a construction-date.
