Barnett Wood Farmhouse

Farmhouse, now house. Probably early C18; altered. Probably timber-framed but
now rendered except the brick plinth (left gable tile-hung); red tile roof (red
composition tiles at rear), brick chimneys. Shallow double-depth plan with
continuous outshut (formerly under catslide roof, but rebuilt with flat roof).
Two-and-a-half storeys and 3 bays, almost symmetrical; the doorway is offset
slightly left of centre, protected by a modern flat-roofed wooden porch; to the
right the 2nd bay has a 3-light casement window, but the window in the 1st bay
to the left and the 3 windows at 1st floor are all 12-pane sashes with the panes
set horizontally rather than vertically; the roof has a dormer to the right and an
inserted skylight in the centre. At the right-hand gable end is a very large
external chimney stack with offsets; the left gable wall has a later extruded
chimney, an inserted doorway to the front of this and a 2-light casement to the
attic, an altered horizontal-sliding sash to the rear and a casement above this.
Rear outshut rebuilt in modern common brick. Interior: the housepart in the 2nd
bay has a chamfered lateral beam and a blocked-up inglenook fireplace, and the
room to the rear of this has a cross-corner fireplace; C19 staircase with stick
balusters; another chamfered beam at 1st floor of the 1st bay; no timber-
framing or roof trusses visible internally.
