1/198 Home Farmhouse, with dairy and
tea room attached

GV II

House, c.1700, restored 1885 when a tea room and dairy were added on the
north-west side by Paley and Austin. 2 storeys. Windows rebated and hollow
chamfered, of 2 lights, with cyma-moulded hoods treated as open pediments.
At the left and right sides of the facade there are 2 adjacent windows on
each floor. Towards the centre there is a single window on each floor. To
the right of this bay is the door, which appears to be of walnut, with
applied mouldings, in a stone doorcase with crude pilasters and a
projecting hood on brackets. Gable chimneys. At the left is the
single-storey tea room, with timber and plaster facings on a stone base.
The main roof continues the direction of the house roof at a lower level
and ends with a bay window with a gable over. In the angle between this
and the gable wall of the house is a projection with hipped roof, with 2
adjacent timber windows facing forwards. The windows have elaborate
leading and some stained glass panels. Adjoining at the rear is the
octagonal stone dairy whose roof continues downwards over a continuous
verandah supported on timber posts and is surmounted by a lantern with
weather vane. On 3 sides the dairy has 6-light mullioned and transomed
windows. Inside, the tea room has oak panelling, and a fireplace surround
inscribed: 'DG [Dawson Greene] 1885'. The dairy has marble shelves
supported on marble baluster columns, panels of coloured tiles depicting
the four seasons, and a ribbed timber roof with pendant bosses around the
lantern.
